The International Day of Peace — or Peace Day — is observed worldwide each year on September 21.

Residents can also celebrate peace in a variety of ways, including:
• Complete a Peace Day Pledge
• Create an Imagine Peace Wish Tree by hanging a ‘wish for peace tag’ on a designated tree, indoors or outdoors.
• Create Pinwheels for Peace and place them in your front yard.
• Wear white on September 21 to symbolize “Peace Across Broward Day.”
• Perform a Random Act of Kindness toward a neighbor, friend, or student.

Residents may share pictures of pinwheels for peace, a wish for peace tag, and peace pledges by emailing Lydia Cutz at lcutz@coralsprings.gov; or using the hashtag #CS4Peace on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook.
This community celebration takes place at the International Peace Garden outside the Center for the Arts at 2855 Coral Springs Drive from 8 a.m. – 9 a.m.
