The "Peace Factory" toured through southwestern Ontario in winter 1997, and included a stop at Rockway Mennonite Collegiate in Kitchener. An interactive exhibit, Peace Factory was a cooperative project of several Mennonite groups. Its goal was to "help all Christians connect their faith in God with a life of peacemaking." It covered approximately 2000 square feet and had several different learning stations for adults and children.
