Welcome to the Coalition!
March 25, 2011 is the Centennial of the infamous Triangle Factory Fire. We are throwing a city-wide commemoration in honor of all who were lost and in support of the on-going fight for social justice for all. In concert with organizations and individuals across the city, we are creating a living memorial that reflects the powerful social conscience and action that the fire inspired.
- The creation of innovative participatory activities, to build the muscles of active social engagement.
- New collaborations between communities
- Establishing a permanent memorial
What can you do?? Its up to you!
Take a chance! Be bold!
We welcome your ideas & suggestions!
March, 2010 will be our next public event. We will commemorate the 99 year anniversary of the fire and announce the 146 organizations participating in the coalition. Each organization will be given the name of one Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire victim to honor.
We’ll be posting more information soon!

I think it would be great to get someone like Pete Seeger or Ronnie Gilbert who were there when the unions were struggling to come and perform.
