Immigration. Storytelling. One Night.

The Story of Us. The Stories you do not know.

A Free Event

Celebrate Welcoming Manchester‘s Welcoming Week, an annual celebration that invites communities across America to bring their immigrants and U.S.-born residents together.

Everyday the media floods our lives with news stories about the immigrant crisis. Often times, the experiences of the people living in the throes of it are silenced by design. Not anymore. We are refocusing the lens.

“The Story of Us” is a one night event that uses the power of storytelling to explore the lives of immigrants from local communities. Several will be joining us to share their stories live. Join us as they recount their journeys to the United States and share their experiences as immigrants in our communities. This program will offer live storytelling, a mixed media exhibit, and opportunities for community dialogue and interaction.

No person’s story is alike, yet all of our stories are connected. Our experiences are parts of a larger human narrative. We encourage you to learn about the stories you don’t know. We invite you to The Story of Us.

*Join us as we start new conversations about immigration/refugee resettlement, community, and inclusion.*

Kya Roumimper will be one of the hosts. We recently held “The Story of Us Premiere” in April as the final thesis event of Kya’s M.Ed program at Merrimack College. Kya will share her discovery and findings from that event.
