To commemorate the Newseum’s opening of “REFUGEE,” a groundbreaking exhibit by the Annenberg Space for Photography, internationally acclaimed photographer Tom Stoddart will talk about his work featured in the exhibit that depicts refugees throughout the world.
In addition, Mariela Shaker, a violin virtuoso who fled Syria in 2013, will talk about her experiences and give a small performance.
Kelly Clements, United Nations deputy high commissioner for refugees, will deliver opening remarks.
Kimberly Dozier of CNN and The Daily Beast, who’s covered the refugee crisis, will moderate the program.
“REFUGEE” opens Nov. 18 and presents global refugee experiences through singular and compelling images taken in Bangladesh, Cameroon, Colombia, Croatia, Germany, Greece, Mexico, Myanmar, Serbia, Slovenia and the United States. The photographs capture the hope and resolve of refugees in the face of dehumanizing and life-threatening persecution.
The event is open to all Newseum members. A VIP reception will be hosted before the program for Friends of the First Amendment Society and Corporate Engagement Program members

I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.
