This year we are choosing City Hall Park (at Park Row) for our annual street happening, surrounded by US Courthouses where the fate of immigrants is decided daily. Let’s bring a moment of peace and light to this area of our city. We invite you to connect to each other, all included, none left behind, in honor of the International Day of Peace!
Co-facilitators Joumana Rizk and Jennifer Hadley will be joined by Rick Ulfik, Peter Lobo, Peter Jam, Giorgia Fumanti, Inma Heredia, Shiang-Jiun Chen and the Peace Kite Project and Gloria Waslyn and Parrots For Peace.
Subways: 4,5,6 to Brooklyn Bridge City Hall Station and walk 2 minutes to City Hall Park. If you are traveling from the West Side take the 2 or 3 to Park Place and walk 3 minutes to City Hall Park (near 4,5,6 entrance).
A flyer for this event is available here.
We'd like to thank our co-sponsors:
