 In 1990 PAND International, led by Arthur Strimling, a New York theater director and PAND International Vice President, collaborated with the performance artist Suzanne Lacy and a Finnish PAND chapter to produce a Meeting of the Worlds Festival—"a music and art gathering on the theme of world peace"—in Joensuu, Finland.The Meeting of the Worlds Festival, billed as a "global gathering" by the Los Angeles Times, included performances by the Los Angeles Philharmonic, the Leningrad Philharmonic, and musical artists David Byrne and Martina Arroyo.In addition to organizing events, there is evidence that some PAND collectives were involved in publishing and documentary film projects.
