NBFY Expressions of Peace Expo 2025 – EPEX2025
September 20 @ 9:00 am - 9:00 pm
Event Navigation
Join New Beginnings For You for our First Annual Expressions of Peace Expo (EPEX 2025) at the Dayton Convention Center on Saturday, September 20, 2025. For decades, local and national peace-seeking coalitions composed of many concerned community stakeholders have invested much time and energy in raising awareness about the causes, conditions, impacts, and prevalence of violence. Our conversation with individuals and families has identified an unmet need. In response, New Beginnings For You began to plan for The Expressions of Peace Expo. On September 20, 2025, we will convene partners from various entities and attendees from diverse backgrounds to find, foster, protect, and express pathways to our individual and collective peace. The Expressions of Peace Expo will offer a platform for our communities to harness the power of our trauma awareness experiences and move toward trauma reduction, healing, and avoidance-a well-care approach to peace. During the expo, attendees will enjoy keynote speakers, a variety of workshops and panel discussions, live entertainment, interactive wellness demonstrations, and an exclusive Expressions of Peace Film Showcase. Some of our partners, presenters, and vendors will provide attendees with opportunities to connect to services, projects, and newly imagined initiatives throughout the year. We want to promote and create a culture of peace beyond the boundaries of the event. We invite young people from area schools and community programs to plan, create, and share how they envision and express peace. The common areas, our dedicated youth exhibit space, and the main stage will serve as galleries throughout the expo to celebrate their work. You will be glad you attended The Expressions of Peace Expo (EPEX 2025) on September 20, 2025.
