Irvington Theater honors Memorial Day

We Salute You: Remembering Fallen Heroes is our way of recognizing Memorial Day. Through story and art, families from across the United States will honor their loved ones who served our country.

The program features videos from over a dozen individuals offering unique perspectives and insights into the lives and legacies of fallen heroes – the brave women and men who served the United States. A “Hometown Heroes” segment will highlight local Irvington residents who share stories of their family members, offer a historical perspective on Irvington during World War II, and reflect on their memories of the Irvington Memorial Day Parade throughout the years. Other participants include Gold Star Daughters and members of the Irvington Senior Center, along with advocates of organizations that work to honor our veterans such as Sons and Daughters In Touch, Wear Blue: Run to Remember, Honor Flight Network, and The Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund.

Presented as part of In Our Own Words, our series that brings social issues center stage through art and conversation.

As featured in ArtsWestchester and BroadwayWorld
