declaration of nutopia

by JOHN ONO LENNON and YOKO ONO LENNON

 

Nutopian Embassy, One White Street, New York, NY 10013, April 1st, 1973

 

We announce the birth of a conceptual country, NUTOPIA.

Citizenship of the country can be obtained by declaration of your awareness of NUTOPIA.

NUTOPIA has no land, no boundaries, no passports, only people.

NUTOPIA has no laws other than cosmic.

All people of NUTOPIA are ambassadors of the country.

As two ambassadors of NUTOPIA, we ask for diplomatic immunity and recognition in the United Nations of our country and its people.

 

The Declaration of Nutopia was signed by John Lennon and Yoko Ono on April 1, 1973. It was unveiled at a press conference in New York on April 2, and reproduced in the original sleeve of their album Mind Games
