In a world filled with conflict, one city in Michigan is celebrating its status as an International City of Peace. A group of nonprofit organizations is hosting A Midland Celebration of Peace to commemorate this year's International Day of Peace and to educate, inform and celebrate creating peace in the community. Judy Timmons, treasurer and historian for the Nonviolent Peaceforce Midland Chapter, one of the event's sponsors, said this Saturday's block party will have music, dancing, food trucks, games, crafts and face painting, as well as prizes for the most impactful peacemaking ideas.
