Leaders and students from the Virginia Beach community gathered in the VWU Peace Garden adjacent to Clarke Hall for the opening of the 2024 Season for Nonviolence. The gathering featured student projects from J-Term and highlighted youth initiatives for peace that are taking place throughout the City of Virginia Beach. Following the program, our Robert Nusbaum Center hosted hot chocolate and a tour of the "Yes, in My Backyard" exhibit in the Truist Lighthouse.
