A Sacramento Tradition: Candlelight Vigil for Peace and Justice

Candles will glow on the corner of 16th and J streets in Sacramento for the 26th annual Candlelight Vigil for Peace and Justice from 4-6 p.m. on Tuesday, December 9. The annual event commemorates International Human Rights Day, officially Dec.10.

Rain or shine, the vigil will go on, so participants should be prepared, including bringing wind-proof candles or flashlights and signs to withstand rain. Afterwards, vigilers will gather at Luna’s Café, 1414 16th St. (delicious vegetarian dishes are available).
