Come Together for Peace–A Celebration of Peace for the Whole Family

Wednesday, August 9- COME TOGETHER FOR PEACE. The horrors of war remind us of the need to build a community to promote peace. So ICPJ will host Come Together for Peace on Nagasaki Day, at 6:30pm at Island Park (1450 Island Drive) in Ann Arbor. We will begin with a potluck dinner, followed by activities for all ages, story-telling featuring Laron Williams and Robert Oppenheimer, lantern boat making and peace crane folding. Motoko will provide a first-hand account of her experiences during that time. The evening will conclude with a lantern boat launch ceremony of remembrance for victims of war. Details: 734-663-1870, info@ icpj.net Free and open to the public, donations accepted.
