Annual Family Peace Festival The Interfaith Council of Greater Richmond supports the annual Family Peace Festival, held this year on the International Day of Peace. The theme for the festival is "Peace Begins at Home," and the mission is to provide an opportunity for children, youth, and adults of the greater Richmond area to gather in celebration of peace and diversity. It is our hope that this will foster a growing sense of community.
PLANNING: The planning committee is beginning to meet to make plans for the festival. Our next planning meeting will be on Tuesday, June 17 at 7 p.m. at the Islamic Center of Virginia. We would appreciate your promotion of this event. Flyers and other information will be posted on the website to be downloaded and printed. Please contact Annette Khan at annekhan@msn.com to learn how you can help.
