Join the community at the beautiful New England / Turtle Island Peace Pagoda for their annual Flower Festival Ceremony honoring the birth of ลšฤkyamuni Buddha.

Surrounded by spring growth, flowing streams, birdsong, and mountain air, this gathering is an opportunity to reflect on peace, compassion, and the possibility of laying down the โ€œlong-held sword and shieldโ€ of our world for something gentler and wiser.

Hosted by the Nipponzan Myohoji community, the afternoon will include ceremony, chanting, reflection, and fellowship in one of the most peaceful sacred spaces in New England.

All are welcome, regardless of background or experience.
