above: Our NorCal inter-generational group went on The Peace Train Transcending Barriers Tour July 2018 with Sharon Katz & The Peace Train Band in San Diego and Tijuana. We crossed the border to work with our partners from Promotora de las Bellas Artes in Tijuana and made new friends with over 100 children and their families and teachers. It was amazing. IN OCTOBER 2020, WE WILL DO IT ALL AGAIN, THIS TIME WITH A TRAIN RIDE AND PERFORMANCES IN TECATE & TIJUANA. COME WITH US! Build bridges, not walls! for more info, see this short Peace Train video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZo1D-snfbc
