Previous years have showcased the arts and culture of Cuba (2023)\, Iraq (2024)\, and the Democratic Republic of Congo (2025). \nThis unique series not only offers the opportunity to experience and learn about a diversity of global cultures\, it also aims to elevate visibility of marginalized communities as well as build bridges between neighbors. By uplifting immigrant and refugee voices\, Celebrating Our Neighborhood also helps to demonstrate our shared humanity and connectedness with one another around the world. \nAll Celebrating Our Neighborhood events are free\, but registration is recommended to guarantee seating availability.
