Peace Flag Workshop: Wave Your Freak Flag!
August 26 @ 6:00 pm – 8:30 pm EDT
A peace flag, or bunting is a decorative string of small flags, pennants, or fabric pieces featuring peace symbols, messages of harmony, or anti-war designs. Our Peace Bunting Project, which began 2 months ago, will continue into the Fall. The microphone carried that too create something unique and creative! No experiences necessary, and we will supply magic markers watercolors etc. You’re welcome to bring anything that you like. Each part of the flag or bunting will be approximately 9 by 10 in. In this time of great division, think about what peace means to you. Can mean something different for all of us, yet, we, as human beings, find a commonality in our ideals of peace. What would you draw? We’re not looking for great artist here, just anyone who wants to contribute. You can even make one to take home with you.
This is a no cost Workshop. Donations accepted but absolutely not mandatory.
We will be reaching out to area community groups to see if there is interest in adding to the bunting. If you know of any groups that may be interested in participating, please contact us by text to 978.210.6240, email to salemscall@yahoo.com. eventually, we will be looking for amateur seamstresses to sew the bunting onto another piece of fabric. Let us know if this is of Interest. All contributions of talent labor and time are greatly appreciated. Join us in this act of creative resistance, as we come together as community
This a local Indivisible event!
A core principle behind all Indivisible and coalition partner events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.
