Dr. Marlene Goldenhersh Bricker returns to Carmel with a mission—producing and directing Carmel’s first participation in the National Gandhi and King A Season of Nonviolence observance. A Season of Nonviolence is considered “Compassionate Activism for Global Healing,” another cog in the wheel rolling forward to World Peace. Marlene flies in from St. Louis to attend this peace rally.

Marlene is an accomplished artist, poet, and lecturer, with most of her work focusing on teaching and writing books on character education for schools. One of her pet projects was the creation of 17 tiny metaphysical books and greeting cards that convey the power of love and peace. All are illustrated with her clever art work. She provides valuable tools to convey the message of love.
