Dear Friends,
June 20, 2008 marks World Refugee Day: a day to remember the 32.9
million refugees and internally displaced persons around the world.
The increase in the number of displaced persons is staggering and the
suffering of millions of refugees continues.
In recognition of World Refugee Day, the Pittsburgh Refugee Center
exposes the plight of Afghani refugees in Pakistan through a
photography exhibit: Forgotten Refugee Children: No Return Home.
These photographs are so foreign to our eyes, like a language which
may be described but never spoken. Its images must be understood
through the medium of our eyes.
We invite you to come see with you own eyes during the Three Rivers
Arts Festival at 937 Liberty Ave second floor gallery in downtown
Pittsburgh anytime from 12-8pm June 20th-June 22nd.
Sincerely,
Khadra Mohammed
Executive Director
Pittsburgh Refugee Center
