  • CREATE HIROSHIMA SHADOWS

    We're asking you to create Hiroshima Shadows for Saturday 6 August 2005, the 60th anniversary of the atomic bombing of the Japanese city.

    In the days leading up to this year's anniversary of the Hiroshima bombing – Saturday 6 August - organize a small group of friends to leave Hiroshima shadows all around the city.

    Just get some chalk, and trace around the outline of someone lying on the footpath or leaning against a wall. As well as leaving shadows, add some words that express your feelings about Hiroshima, warfare and nuclear disarmament. Find places that will attract attention – near your local railway station or bus stop, outside shopping centers, schools or your favorite politician's office. 

    Let's cover the city with Hiroshima Shadows! 

    HIROSHIMA AND NAGASAKI – NEVER AGAIN!
    Leave a shadow of our protest on walls, footpaths and streets

    If anyone does this take picture of your creations     send us email to place on this page!
