Happy New Year! Queens Museum exhibit, LEAD impact, blog post of the month
Happy New Year!
I hope you all enjoyed the end of the year and are staying warm today.
I wanted to thank again all among you who have contributed to our crowdfunding campaign and helped us spread the word. We raised nearly $10,000 from over 120 supporters to fund our programs!
I hope to see some of you at the opening of our new exhibit Real People. Real Lives. Women Immigrants of New York at the Queens Museum in February – see more information below.
Wishing you all a year of success, happiness, and health!

EXHIBIT REAL PEOPLE. REAL LIVES.
@ QUEENS MUSEUM, February-March 2018 
You’re invited to come see our Real People. Real Lives. exhibit at the Queens Museum! The exhibit will run from February 17 to March 18.
Each immigrant story is a combination of determination, hope, and challenges. It is more important than ever to share our stories; our stories as immigrants, our stories as women, stories through which we can understand better, and celebrate, the diversity and commonality of human experience.
RSVP here to our opening event on February 17.
