“Shoe Vigil” for Palestine
Madison Farmers’ Market, Capitol Square, King Street corner
Saturday, November 14
8:30 a.m.– 11:00 a.m.
Join our “Shoe Vigil” bearing witness to the plight of the people of Gaza. Please consider joining members of Mennonite Action Madison as we hold a vigil to bear witness to the plight of the people of Gaza and Palestine.
The vigil event will involve over 200 pairs of shoes, many from children, placed on the walk leading up to the State Capitol from the square. It will create a stunning image, representing the more than 75,000 Gazans who have been killed by Israeli forces in the past three years. It will garner a lot of attention from shoppers at the Farmers’ Market. In addition to the shoe exhibit, we will carry signs showing support for the people of Palestine, and we will engage with passers-by. Contact: https://www.mennoniteaction.org/.

(Note: this is the final day of the 2026 Dane County Farmers Market!)
