Hi all,
As many of you know I work on an Iraq war exhibit called Eyes Wide Open (http://www.afsc.org/eyes).
It is going to be in Chicago in Grant Park (at Jackson and Columbus) today through Memorial Day, and there is going to be a kid’s/family event on Saturday, May 26 that I thought some in the Drummond Community might be interested in attending.
The event is called Chicago Children Step Up to Peace and will start at 10:30 and will feature playlets on non-violent conflict resolution by Child’s Play touring theater, a program on Iraqi children and culture by Jennifer Bing-Canar and music in Spanish and English by Mama Edie.
Feel free to email me if you have questions (), we would love to see you there!
Mary Zerkel (room 100)
