World Refugee Day Celebration

Friday, June 16, 2023 | 6pm - 8pm

This event is an opportunity for clients, volunteers, community partners, and stakeholders to come together in celebrating the diverse cultures that are present here in Chattanooga. We hope this event will bring a sense of unity among people of all backgrounds and to stand in solidarity with refugees. We honor their resilience and their journey to a new home in Chattanooga. They are an integral part of our community and bring so much vibrancy and light.

Join us at Citizens of Heaven Church (149 E MLK Blvd, Chattanooga, TN) for a night of music, dancing, international food, activities, and coming together as one community.

Tickets are $10/person with ages 10 and under free. Click here to buy your tickets through Eventbrite!
