HOME 2025: CITIZENSHIP CELEBRATION

FREE
The HOME Refugee Steering Committee at the Lynden Sculpture Garden invites you to observe World Refugee Day in a series of outdoor events and programs that celebrate Milwaukee’s refugee communities through art, food, fashion, and performance. Our theme for 2025 is Walking Together, Weaving the World.

We join with the Community Center for Immigrants for a day of celebrating the citizenship and naturalization of new Americans from Milwaukee’s refugee and immigrant communities. The centerpiece of the event is a naturalization ceremony for new Americans. The ceremony will begin at 11:30 am.
