FREE | JUST DROP IN

LIVING WORLDS AND THE TOP FLOOR

Join Manchester’s annual commemoration of the Hiroshima and Nagaski atomic weapon attacks and civilian victims of war and terrorism.

Manchester City Council is a Vice President of Mayors for Peace and the event shows its solidarity with Hiroshima, Nagasaki and all towns and cities badly affected by war and terrorism.

The event will include readings, poetry and reflection and the laying of a white flowered wreath. The ceremony will take place by the Peace exhibit in the Living Worlds gallery and on the Top Floor.  You can also find out more about the heartbreaking story of Sadako Sasaki, which is a permanent feature of the gallery.
