In honor of Immigrant Heritage Week and in the spirit of International Day of Friendship Brooklyn Borough Hall will display the flags of the world around the gardens of Columbus Park Plaza. Visitors will be able to learn the history of each nation and get involved in civic action and organize for immigrant rights.
