You're invited to this free celebration

Resilience is in! Join Northern Nevada International Center in honor of World Refugee Day to celebrate the resilience and resolve of those who now call Nevada home. Because in Nevada, we stand together, no matter where home was before!

Since 2016, NNIC has worked to help nearly 800 refugees from across the globe right here in northern Nevada. In honor of World Refugee Day (June 20), an international day of recognition for refugees across the globe orchestrated by the United Nations, NNIC invites the public to Miguel Ribera Park on Sunday, June 23, to celebrate and highlight the cultures of those making Nevada their new home. 

Sponsored in part by Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield and Community Health Alliance, World Refugee Day will allow attendees to enjoy games, multi-cultural music, refreshments and a Resource Village from noon to 4 p.m.

While the event is free, we encourage you to RSVP via Eventbrite.
