Description and historyFunded by the National Park Service and the City of Portland's Housing and Community Development department, it is the first known peace memorial in the state. Gillman intended for the sculpture to "create a space where people could sit and have quiet time" and wanted to "express his own advocacy for peace as well as that of the nearby churches".[1][2] The installation is composed of three large pillars.[2] Displayed with the sculpture is a poem chosen by Gillam: Let us be "Called...by the hopes of children to a world of endless wheat and barley sugar... whatever--the skies now lifted and the poppies bloomed and the men and women fed the children and the long long lives of elders kept the history green." The Smithsonian Institution categorizes Peace Chant as both abstract and allegorical ("peace").[3] In May 1985, City Council named the block on which the sculpture is installed Peace Plaza.[2] See also
