On October 6th, we'll honor our 30-year history as a program of Safe Horizon and embrace our future as the independent New York Peace Institute.

Please join us, as we celebrate building peace in New York City and beyond!  We're hosting a lovely cocktail reception, 6:30-9:30pm at the Helen Mills Event Space, 137 W.26th Street, New York, NY.

We'll award the New York Peace Prize to Kings County District Attorney Charles J. Hynesand the Get in the Middle Medal to CeaseFire's Ameena Matthews, featured in the film The Interrupters.  In the courts and on the street, these two amazing individuals have demonstrated a tireless commitment to building peace in their communities.

General admission is $55, and $40 for New York Peace Institute mediators. This includes an open bar, tasty hors d'oeuvres, and fabulous company.  You can buy your tickets by credit card or check here by September 26th.

Cosmic space is infinite, but the event space is limited, so RSVP soon!
