Acclaimed artist and widowed wife of John Lennon, Yoko Ono is also a staunch supporter of autism research.

Ono unveiled an original mural entitled Promise which will be auctioned off in support of Autism Speaks and the 2nd Annual World Autism Awareness Day. This seven-foot mural currently is on display at the United Nations in New York City and will be auctioned for an autism charity.

Promise is comprised of 67 jigsaw-like pieces which will be broken down, signed by the Ono and auctioned off. The money raised will go to the charity Autism Speaks. The unveiled work is already missing two pieces. But Yoko hopes all 67 pieces will be reunited once a cure for autism is discovered.

“Once the solution for autism is discovered, we will see the sky shimmering in its original beauty, with no holes,” she explained.
