Join us for a special film screening in honor of World Refugee Day (June 20). The evening will begin with opening remarks and a brief update on the current state of refugee resettlement and integration, followed immediately by the film, ‘The Swimmers.’

Based on a true story, the movie follows the journey from war-torn Syria to the 2016 Rio Olympics. Two young sisters embark on a harrowing journey as refugees, putting both their hearts and champion swimming skills to heroic use.

Due to intense thematic elements, this event is recommended for adults and older teens only – please leave the little ones at home for this one.
