A Refugee’s Journey of Survival and Hope
Seattle's Wing Luke Museum of the Asian Pacific American Experience presents an exhibition of refugee stories.
Where
See life through the eyes of a refugee through personal stories, moving photographs and multimedia. Hear first-hand accounts of how refugees survived war, violence and oppression with hopes for a better future for their families. Ponder the trials of starting a life with nothing, in strange places and foreign cities, and having to call this new place a home.
