Dear Earthling. ..INVITATION …EARTH DAY SUNDAY AND WEDNESDAY on
the commons, Ann Arbor Fifth Avenue and Library Lane April 19 and 22 2026

Rising to the occasion: Prayers, Healing, Music, Dance, Art and Words

Whatever we can get to gather together…making community sharing
knowledge and concerns.
Are we the last generations, or is it only that we leave un-livability to the nexts?
Better than to Oz, we need to build a Green Brick Road to sustainability and survival.

All our efforts are part of the way. Bring what you are doing, See what else is happening.

Come to Earth Day in the Center of the City, on the Commons, Library Lane
and Fifth Avenue

Indigenous Wisdoms, Big Picture dialogues, Activist perspectives on Peace with the Earth
Music to Turn the Heart, what is needed to allow for the policy changes needed

There will a ReDedication ceremony and Memorial for those not to be
forgotten.

Yousef Rabhi will speak on “Building Climate Sustainability in Ann
Arbor” after 5 PM on Earth Day Wednesday, bringing it all to Home.
