October 4th: forest action.
October 13th: we will be singing in African Cemetery #2 as part of Tree Week. The Cemetery recently has been designated as an arboretum. But the history of the Cemetery is one of decades of neglect even though prominent African Americans in the horse industry are buried there. Dedicated volunteers have brought the Cemetery back to life. home | African Cemetery No2
October 20th: we will be singing before the showing of the film, “The Seeds of Peace,” at the Kentucky Theatre. The film chronicles the story of Hideko Tamura Snider, a survivor of the Hiroshima atomic bombing who later settled in Oregon. Through her Seeds of Peace initiative, seedlings propagated from trees that survived the Hiroshima bombing have been planted in communities across Oregon as symbols of hope, resilience, and peace. We are exploring the possibility of bringing one of these seedlings to Lexington and hope our city can become a “Seeds of Peace” community.
November 14th: water action.
