Lanterns for Peace
Tenney Park 1500 Sherman Ave., Madison, Wisconsin 53703
Hannah Mortensen
media release: The annual Lanterns for Peace event will take place at 6:30 pm on Sunday, August 6, at the Tenney Park shelter, 402 N Thornton Ave, Madison.
It is a family affair; there will be snack food, drinks and music. We decorate lanterns with messages of peace, then light and float them in the lagoon. It is a way to remember the people who lost their lives in the atomic bombings of Hiroshima/Nagasaki and to dedicate ourselves to making sure a nuclear attack happens "never again".
Cosponsors: Farley Center for Peace, Justice & Sustainability, Friends Meeting of Madison (Quakers), Madison Arcatao Sister City Project, Interfaith Peace Working Group, Physicians for Social Responsibility, Safe Skies Clean Water, Veterans for Peace- Chapter 25, Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom
