UNITED KINGDOM - To reduce interfaith conflict, a gallery in London launched a national art competition across the UK in 2009 to explore the underlying issues around interfaith conflict, and bring faiths together. This year, the competition is tied to the International Olympics, and the annual event, "My Place On The Isle: Exploring Faith & Identity" shall again be exhibited at the Mica Gallery. The winners will then be celebrated at an Awards Ceremony in central London in Summer 2012, receive media coverage and potentially showcase their work during 2012, as part of a tour of the UK, which organizers hope will be part of the 2012 Olympic Games.
