International Peace & Humanity Day: Floating of Paper Lanterns

Uncategorized Download To My Calendar
Adopting a traditional Japanese ceremony Tōrō nagashi (tōrō means "lantern" and nagashi means "cruise, flow"), celebrate peace and humanity by floating paper lanterns with written messages to the world as a hope or WISH for global peace and understanding.

Celebrate International Peace & Humanity Day! We invite guests to write messages on paper lanterns and enjoy a relaxing San Diego evening at the waterside Coronado City Council Chambers patio along with light food, refreshments, origami, exhibits, presentations, and live music -- a wonderful experience to gather and celebrate with fellow community members and leaders. You can make and float your own paper lantern (materials will be supplied for free), and you?re welcome to take it home with you at the end of the evening. Yukata are welcome.

Admission: $5
