Honor the Peacemakers
Event Navigation
We honor the peacemakers among us, listed below, who have during their lives worked for peace and against war, for justice and against injustice, for nonviolent resolutions and against violence, and for the common good and against selfishness and greed.
Join us across the street from the Plaza during the Farmers Market to honor the inductees for 2017:
- Holly Near – Singer/Songwriter
- Susan Lamont – former Peace and Justice Center director ,
- Don and Dee Schilling – civil rights activists, and
- Charles J. Liteky – Vietnam War medic-turned-peace-activist.
By honoring these outstanding individuals we also honor all who share in the collective desire to rise above differences of race, religion, nationalities and ideologies to that place where we are all brothers and sisters, where we share a common humanity and a common desire to live in peace with all the people of the world.
