The Union County Peace Council is holding their 10th annual Peace and  World Friendship arts fair in downtown Cranford.
The date is August 5, 2012  1-7 PM, rain date August 12.  
The theme of this year's fair is "Honoring Our Elders" with the vision of small group discussions with elders and young people, especially those who have been involved in non-violence and war resistance movements. There will be music, art,  and activities. Once again, the fair will feature displays of  artwork by Union County artists, music performers who have been  newly-discovered at the open mike evenings around Cranford, an  opportunity to learn paper crane origami, children's events, and representation by local organizations that foster peace, diplomacy, humanitarianism and an end to nuclear weapons.

There will be a book  exchange table to honor the memory of a deceased member Fred Sebastian who was a very knowledgeable bookseller.

This year, the Peace Council is assisting two Cranford college  students with fund raising for humanitarian efforts in Uganda and  service learning in Brazil.

The public address system is expected to be powered by solar batteries and a bicycle generator.

The fair will be held at the Eastman Plaza Clock Park, located at 2 Eastman St at North Avenue and is a family-friendly event.  

There will be free parking. The day will end with a drum circle for peace so bring your drum or other percussion instrument.

Vendors welcome, $5 suggested donation for a 3 ft. x 3 ft. table.  
Please contact Monica Shimkus at (908) 884-1262.
