A wooden post with a peace message stands among trees, benches, birdhouses, and decorated stones.

Posted to Beaver Island Happenings (public Facebook group) by Cael Conway on 2026-07-25 13:19:00. Caption as posted: "We are planning an event around the peace pole behind the library on August 8th at 11 a.m. We need 4 individuals to "speak" a prayer or message in one of the following languages (all present on the peace pole): English, French, Irish (Gaelic), Anishinaabe. Please contact the library if you would be willing. Also will have craft/art to create your own peace message."

Visual descriptionwritten by a machine · unchecked

A tall wooden post bears a narrow white sign with vertically oriented black lettering. It stands beside a large tree in a grassy, wooded area with low wooden benches or rails, birdhouses, and decorated stones and rocks in the foreground.

A model wrote this. It was shown the image and the catalogue record together, and asked to keep them apart — what it saw is here, what the record told it is under "taken from the record" below. It is still wrong often enough to matter, about who is pictured, where, when, and what is happening. Read it as a way to find the image, never as evidence about it. If you can correct it, please do: write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com, or see how corrections work. Someone who recognises a face or a shoreline knows more than the model did.

Taken from the record

Not observed in the image — supplied by the archive's own catalogue, and repeated here so the two stay distinguishable.

The image was posted by Cael Conway to a public community Facebook group on July 25, 2026. The accompanying caption announces a planned August 8 event at 11 a.m. around the peace pole behind the library, with prayers or messages in English, French, Irish (Gaelic), and Anishinaabe, plus craft and art activities.

Why this archive publishes it. Public Facebook groups and pages run by island organisations and residents. Each item credits the poster by name and links to the original post. Removal on request.

Material goes off the web without anyone deciding that it should: a host lapses, a gallery is retired, a link stops resolving. Holding a copy — with its provenance, its checksum and its holder's terms recorded beside it — is much of why this archive exists. If you are looking for something whose original has since gone, write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com and a full-size copy of what is held here will be sent to you.

Recorded verbatim from the provenance sidecar taken at retrieval — this archive does not restate a holder's terms in its own words, does not add a restriction the holder did not state, and does not abridge one.

The archive holds its own copy of that file and will supply it on request; it is not re-served here, because the holder serves it better and a second copy is a second thing to go stale.
