SUMMARY:The Immigrant Story Live
DESCRIPTION:In partnership with the City of Portland Office of Community and Civic Life Immigrant & Refugee program\, as part of Welcoming Week 2024\, and in the spirit of a welcoming and inclusive community\, The Immigrant Story Live presents an evening of soulful music and moving storytelling by immigrants and other residents of our community hosted by Catlin Gabel School. \nJoin us Saturday\, September 14\, 2024\, from 7 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. in the Cabell Center Theater\, located at Catlin Gabel School\, 8825 SW Barnes Road\, Portland\, Oregon 97225. \nTo kick off this year’s Welcoming Week celebration\, we invite you to hear four compelling stories told — and lived — by men and women from a diversity of backgrounds. Some made arduous journeys here as refugees and some have wrestled with questions of personal identity as second generation immigrants. All are helping to create Oregon’s rich patchwork of cultures. Storytellers with roots in Afghanistan\, Democratic Republic of Congo\, Japan and Laos will share their stories of courage\, fortitude and resilience. \nAfter a brief intermission\, the evening will continue with a melodious music performance by Seffarine\, a Portland-based ensemble led by Lamiae Naki and Nat Hulskamp. They will bring a unique blend of music that features soulful Moroccan vocals\, flamenco guitar\, Arabic oud and Persian kamancheh accompaniment\, resulting in an inspiring musical experience. \nThis is the sixth year that the Immigrant Story has been a part of Welcoming Week\, which is designed to bring together immigrants\, refugees\, and U.S.-born residents to raise awareness of the benefits of welcoming everyone to our communities. We have experienced the power of people coming together to continue to create and celebrate an inclusive and welcoming community where we all belong. \nFree event. Limited seating. First-come\, first-served. Doors open at 6:30 p.m.\nThis free event is made possible by a generous contribution by the Zidell Family Foundation. Additional funding was provided by a grant from the City of Portland and Travel Portland.
