PEACE FOR ALL
“It’s time for action, in the name of world peace.” Major figures who share this vision with UNIQLO have volunteered to design T-shirts expressing their peaceful wishes. All proceeds will be donated to international organizations supporting those affected by violence, discrimination, armed conflict, and poverty. The Peace for All project is powered by each and every one of you who wears these T-shirts. Our wish is for a world in which all people can feel the peace of a future where everyone can live safely together. UNIQLO will continue to broaden this initiative, working with people all around the world.
*UNIQLO parent company Fast Retailing Co., Ltd. will donate an amount equivalent to all profits (no less than 20% of the selling price) equally among UNHCR, Save the Children Japan, and Plan International Inc. This sales promotion is conducted by Fast Retailing, a parent company of UNIQLO Japan.
Jason Polan
Artist / Jason Polan, originally from Michigan, lived in New York following college. His work is exhibited all over the world. He was the founding member of Taco Bell Drawing Club. Polan did projects with The New York Times, The Ford Foundation, The New Yorker and more. Polan continued to draw every person in New York until his death from cancer at age 37.
Stronger Together was drawn on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan on January 21, 2017. It is part of Every Person in New York, a project that Jason Polan began on September 4, 2008, and which was later compiled into two books: Every Person in New York and Every Person in New York, Volume 2. He drew people he saw every day, and each night he scanned the drawings, uploading them to his blog. Jason knew he could never finish this project and was totally okay with that. He liked the idea that it would be a project he could work on forever.
