Refugee Week: Journeys of Healing Exhibition

22 June, 2022

18:00 - 20:00

Refugee Week 2022 Journeys of Healing

As part of our ‘Cathedral of Sanctuary’ status, we continue to look for opportunities to both welcome those in our city who have come seeking sanctuary, and also to raise awareness around the wider situation of refugees and asylum-seekers in Ireland and around the world. This includes participation in Refugee Week each year.

Journeys of Healing, 20-25 June

Creative exhibition featuring art, poetry and reflections on refugee and asylum-seeker experiences. Join us for a cup of tea or coffee, and you may even have the chance to meet and chat with one of the artists! Special free-of-charge evening opening hours:

Monday, 20 June: 18.00-20.00. Opening night of the exhibition!

Tuesday, 21 June: 18.00-20.00, with screening of a new short film following up on the ‘Homing Pigeons: Birds with Wishes’ project in collaboration with Places of ARCture. Film showing starts at 19.00.

Wednesday, 22 June: 18.00-20.00, with information and discussion about the SafeHaven programme, an initiative of Dublin City Interfaith Forum to provide training and support for faith leaders and faith-based organisations on how to respond to hate-motivated incidents. SafeHaven discussion will begin at 19.00.
