PEACE WEEK ANN ARBOR: EVERYONE IS INVITED
SUNDAY to SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 19-25, 2021
Ann Arbor Community Commons
Fifth Avenue and Library Lane
An open family friendly event. Come for all or some.
Be part of the future. Write yourself in the “Peace Book”.
Peace Day Established by the United Nations in 1981.
This years’ theme: Recovering Better for a Sustainable Equitable World.
The commons is a place to share community and mutual aid. Every conscious person is concerned about the state of the world, with the doomsday clock but seconds before midnight, and discord high in our own town.
The Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom and the The Megiddo Peace Project offer this program.
