Art for Children in War Zones | Edinburgh News

This fall, Bonhams Edinburgh is hosting “Artists for Firefly,” a powerful art exhibition raising funds for Firefly International—a charity founded in 1995 by Ellie Maxwell to support children affected by war through education, art therapy, and mental health care across Syria, Egypt, Palestine, and Bosnia. Featuring over 20 artists whose works center on childhood, every sale directly benefits these children. Dr. Ben Street highlights how creativity fosters coexistence, and the exhibition embodies a grassroots, community-driven mission to heal trauma through art. Available online and in person starting September 28 at 6 PM, this initiative proves art’s transformative power—channeling creativity into hope, resilience, and tangible support for the world’s most vulnerable.
