Join us on Saturday, April 18, 2026 at 6:00 pm at James Reeb Unitarian Universalist Congregation for our monthly "Potluck for People, Peace, & Planet!"
As one of the featured events of Building Unity for Nonviolent Action's "Spring Into Solidarity" campaign, we will be hosting a family-friendly Kick-off to Earth Week with a Community-created "Earth Day Cake" and "Many Day Art Build" in preparation for May Day.
We warmly invite people bring cake and frosting (Gluten and peanut-free and Vegan option will be appreciated for the sake of maximum inclusivity).

We'll conclude the eventing by creating art that we can display and wear during one of our nation's biggest nonviolent solidarity events ever - May Day (5/1) 2026!
The goals for this gathering as well as all other BUG's around Wisconsin include sharing fellowship, food, information about peace, justice, sustainability, and democracy opportunities, and exploring the possibilities of united action.

This will be a potluck gathering but if bringing a food item to share doesn’t work well for you for any reason, please come without bringing any food. There will be plenty. (We often have extra food so feel free to bring “to-go containers” to help excess food find a good home.)
