Vigil for Victims of Gun Violence

  • The Table Athens 1250 South Lumpkin Street Athens, GA, 30605 United States (map)

After we spend the day dismantling guns at our Guns to Gardens event, we invite the larger community to gather together to honor those whose lives have been affected by gun violence. We will hear from the RAWtools South organizers, local advocates & educators, survivors of gun violence, and families of victims. We will sing together, pray together, and light candles together in the hope of providing a space for healing, advocacy, and community.

Featured Speakers:

  • Stan Wilson & Scotty Utz of RAWtools South

  • Lamar Handy of the D.L. Handy Foundation

  • Tiffany Taylor of Mothers of Black Sons Development Program

  • Rev. Tom Buchanan, Covenant Presbyterian Church

RAWtools will also have garden tools, jewelry, and art made from guns available for purchase.
