“Come Together: NYC” event marked the return of the John Lennon Educational Tour Bus, a mobile production facility that “provides hands-on creative experiences to students of all ages.”

This year’s theme was “activism.” Students gathered and sang “Give Peace A Chance,” carrying signs saying “Hair Peace,” “Bed Peace,” and “Imagine Peace” – all a recreation of John Lennon and Yoko Ono’s famous “bed-in” protests of the Vietnam war in 1969.

During event, Yoko Ono, Ringo and Bridges,climbed onto a large white bed, surrounded by a cheering crowd of children and dignitaries.
‘It’s an incredible day for me to finally go to bed with Yoko,’ joked Ringo, sporting an all black ensemble and his signature sunglasses.

Ono, laying beside her late husband’s bandmate, smiled and said: ‘I think that maybe John is hearing us. Give peace a chance… just remember that we are creating the world.’
After a band performed Lennon’s ‘Imagine,’ during which Mayor de Blasio flashed the peace sign while holding Ono’s hand.
Bridges joined the festivities in his capacity as a national spokesman of the non-profit group Share Our strength to promote the childhood nutrition program No Kid Hungry.
