St. Paul – Reflections on War and Service at the Capitol Mall

October 26 @ 1:00 pm - 3:30 pm CDT

Free

Presented in honor of Veterans Voices Month, this event will provide participants an opportunity to reflect on the experiences and perspectives of service members, Veterans, and civilians in how we understand the nature of military conflicts, and how the public remembers and interprets the experience of war and service through memorials and monuments. The program will include an interactive writing activity and participants will have the opportunity to share their stories and experiences. Facilitators will guide participants through the writing activity and there will be time for group discussion about monuments and memorials on the Minnesota State Capitol Mall.

Participants will meet in the Minnesota State Capitol building and then walk to the Lower Capitol Mall, where most of the program will occur. Most of this event will take place outdoors, weather permitting. In case of inclement weather, the program will be conducted indoors at the State Capitol.

K-12 educators can receive 2 CEUs for attending.
