You're invited to this free celebration

One community, many journeys

Join the 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! This event marks 10 years of NNIC serving as a refugee resettlement agency in Northern Nevada- a decade of building pathways to safety, belonging, and opportunity. 

Since 2016, NNIC has worked to help nearly 1,200 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 21, to celebrate and highlight the cultures of those making Nevada their new home. 

Come get to know your neighbors! World Refugee Day will allow attendees to enjoy games, multi-cultural music and refreshments from noon to 3 p.m.

While the event is free, we encourage you to RSVP. More details to follow soon.

Your sponsorship directly advances NNIC’s mission to foster global engagement through international exchanges, refugee resettlement, and language access services. To inquire about sponsorship opportunities for the 2026 celebration, email events@nnic.org.
