The Peace Island Picnic will be on Harriet Island, a St Paul city park just across Mississippi from where the Republican National Convention (RNC). Officially the picnic times are 1-8 PM, with the early hours used for setup. So coming in after work with your picnic setup would be ideal. No vendors are allowed in the permit, so people are fundraising to provide some basic food and drinks, to add to what people bring on their own. Activities include performance by some well known artists, sing-a-longs, artistic displays, kite flying, checking out the Trueblue massive TV screen and making a giant peace sign with people. This will be a pleasant event to end preceding days of marches, parades, bannering, Peace Island Conference and other artistic “UnConvention” expression planned for when the national focus is on the Republican National Convention.
