Peace Cranes for Newtown
|
 Japanese tradition has it that a gift of 1,000 origami cranes will bring peace and good luck to the recipient. A group of Ridgefield families, in cooperation with the Library, has set a goal of creating 1,000 cranes to be donated to the Cyrennius H. Booth Library in Newtown, as a sign of solidarity and sympathy with this grieving community.
Drop by the Library anytime to participate and to admire the collection of cranes as it grows. You can make your crane on the spot, or pick up instructions and paper and make them at home or with a group in the community.
