The Immigrant City: Then and Now exhibit, through first-hand accounts, photos, art and artifacts, connect with over 30 people of immigrant heritage as they narrate their unique experiences. Explore Somerville's immigrant roots and the lives of today's newest residents from around the world by participating in our celebration of the many voices that contribute to this one community, to our immigrant city.

Regular gallery hours are: Tuesday through Sunday, 11 am - 5 pm and Thursdays until 8 pm and FREE to the public.

Come to the Opening Reception to explore the exhibit as it opens to the public. Enjoy international cuisine from local, family-owned restaurants together with Somerville artists, narrators, authors, Tufts faculty, and Welcome Project staff and board. This event features the premiere of short new digital stories produced by Somerville youth from immigrant families.
