Peace Cranes on Hiroshima Day
Tues 8/6/13 from 10am-2pm
at Balboa Park "big" fountain
Tuesday August 6, 2013 marks the 68th anniversary of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima by the United States.
Join the Peace Resource Center as we fold paper peace cranes and give them to people visiting Balboa Park. Look for the blue banner "Hiroshima/Nagasaki - Never Again" near the fountain between the Natural History Museum and the Rueben H. Fleet Space Center. Both these museums are free on that Tuesday and there will be many people to have conversations with about nonviolent alternatives to resolve international conflict.
