Siblings: A storytelling night about siblings and immigration
Tuesday, September 27th @ 6:00-8:00 PM | La Cosecha 1280 4th St. NE Nobody knows you quite like your siblings. Siblings from all over the world have a special bond, but immigrants with siblings experience unique family dynamics that many other sibling pairs don’t. Having to navigate a new country and culture together forces brothers and sisters to interact in ways that lead to new highs and lows. At KAMA DC's storytelling night, come hear from immigrant speakers about how their relationships with their siblings grew or transformed over their lives. Donate what you can for tickets. |
