JOIN Genesee Valley Citizens for Peace as we celebrate the 5th anniversary of the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW).
Thursday, January 22nd, 2026 6:00 pm – 7:45 pm
Wadsworth Library, 24 Center Street, Geneseo NY
Information regarding the growing global status of the TPNW, AND a free screening of the little known, 53 minute, 2025 film: The Atomic Bowl: Football at Ground Zero—And Nuclear Peril Today.
This PBS documentary tells the story of a 1946 football game played in Nagasaki, shortly after the atomic bombing, with actual footage of the people and city of Nagasaki, and serves as a stark reminder today.
For over 80 years, nuclear weapons have threatened everything we treasure, and the risks are growing. Both threats to use nuclear weapons and threats to make more nuclear weapons usable have the potential to lead us towards global catastrophe. But it doesn’t have to be this way.
The International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN), along with its many partners and supporting organizations, including Genesee Valley Citizens for Peace , and a global majority of countries are pushing back—and using the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons to show that nuclear weapons are totally unacceptable.
Please join us.
