May 28th – September 15th, 2024

The Quad City Area has a history of welcoming immigrants from Europe in the past centuries and continues to be a sanctuary for immigrants and refugees from around the world. This shared history creates a global connection through the universal experience of starting anew in a foreign land.
Learn about current populations settling in the Quad Cities and learn about the hardships refugees face today.
This exhibition is in partnership with World Relief Quad Cities and supported by the Moline Regional Community Foundation.
