The Children's Peace Pavilion located at the Community of Christ Auditorium in Independence, Missouri, was established in 1995 to pursue its mission of "Enriching the lives of children through the pursuit of peace for all."
It attracts visitors each year to a number of exhibits designed to teach concepts of personal peace, social peace, international peace, and environmental peace to children ages 5 through 11. It is frequently used as a destination for elementary school field trips for students in the greater Kansas City area. Local Girl Scouts may also earn Girl Scouts of the USA insignia through a partnership with Children's Peace Pavilion.
As an independent 501(c)3 charitable organization, Children's Peace Pavilion is governed by an independent board of directors.
