You are cordially invited to attend the 2nd Nakashima Foundation for Peace Award Ceremony on Sunday, May 23rd, 2021 at 4 PM via “Zoom”.

Our honorees this year are Scott and Hella McVay, among the first of George Nakashima’s devoted friends to learn of his Dream of Peace Altars for the World in 1983, Nakashima’s kindred spirits in the realms of integrating art, poetry, and science.

We are proud to feature videographer Zak Winokur with Gordon Korstange on Carnatic bamboo flute to share a virtual tour of the Nakashima property in bloom, and shall celebrate the toast via “zoom” rather than in person, but invite you to this festive celebration in remembrance of Blossom Festivals past with glass in hand.

In addition to the beautiful music and scenery, there will be a meditation by Miriam Belov, a tribute by Julian Lines, and a remarkable testimony to the work of George Nakashima by Scott and Hella McVay.

Together, we will take the first steps toward planting a new living symbol of Peace. We hope that you’ll join us.
