Two different photo essays loaned from the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) were exhibited at the Muhammad Ali Center: “Utica-The Town That Loves Refugees” And “A New Home, A New Life.” The exhibits raised awareness and greater understanding of refugee experiences and informed people about getting involved in helping refugees in our own community. The exhibit was brought to the Ali Center through its partner, Catholic Charities. Local refugees were invited to view the photo display and experience the Center’s exhibits at no cost on World Refugee Day.
