DESCRIPTION:This evening of remembrance, reflection, and hope marks the 79th 
 anniversary of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki by the U.S. on 
 August 6 and 9, 1945.  Gather to honor the lives lost and those affected by 
 the violence of nuclear warfare.  This is the 20th anniversary of the Peace 
 Lantern Ceremony organized and sponsored by the Monterey County branch of 
 Women's International League for Peace and Freedom.  Beverly Bean, Monterey 
 Branch President, will emcee.\n\nThe evening begins with a powerful 
 performance of Taiko drumming by Shinsho-Mugen Daiko. \nAttendees will have 
 the opportunity to craft a lantern with an expression of peace or 
 remembrance.\n\nAs the sun begins to set, we will hear from keynote 
 speaker, Sharat G. Lin, PhD, a distinguished medical physicist whose 
 expertise spans global political economy, public health, and peace 
 activism. \n\nThe evening will unfold with music, poetry, and stories.  As 
 darkness descends, the peace lanterns will be launched by kayaks to glide 
 over the cove waters, guided by the serene melodies of Tai-Chi Master Jim 
 Scott-Behrends on the Japanese bamboo shakuhachi flute.  \n\nJoin us as we 
 come together to honor the past and envision a future in which war and the 
 threats of nuclear annihilation are replaced with nonviolent conflict 
 resolution and international cooperation.\n
