Lanterns for Peace 2021

August 9, 2021 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm

Event hosted by Physicians for Social Responsibility Wisconsin

Join us for this family friendly event to commemorate the lives lost in the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings 76 years ago and make sure that such nuclear attacks never again take place. We remember the past, so that we can envision and work for a peaceful, just and nuclear-free future.

The event will be open to the public to attend at Tenney Park outside of the John Wall Family Pavilion and the entire event will be held outdoors. You are welcome to mail in your lantern if you cannot be in attendance.

Open to public at 6:30pm for people to create lanterns
Program starts at 7:30pm
Lanterns start going out at dusk approximately 7:45-8:00pm
