A peace vigil took place outside the Zwaanandael Museum in Lewes March 15, as about 30 people protested the U.S. conflict in the Middle East. Members of the group held signs while cars honked in support as they drove by.
The group meets for similar protests every Sunday from 1 to 1:45 p.m. The public is invited to participate.
