media release: Join Open Doors for Refugees at their annual community potluck picnic on September 15 at Madison’s Olin Park Pavilion. This family-friendly event will feature a variety of activities, delicious food, and live musical entertainment by Gloria Hays, Yid Vicious, Front Porch String Band, providing an opportunity for resettled refugees and long-term Madison residents to come together and build connections.
Last year’s summer picnic saw nearly 300 attendees, and this year, Open Doors hopes to attract an even larger crowd. The event not only celebrates the diversity of Madison’s community but also highlights the resilience of local refugees in overcoming challenges. The picnic is free and open to everyone, with attendees encouraged to contribute to the potluck if possible.
Open Doors for Refugees is a volunteer-led organization that welcomes and supports refugees in the Madison area. The organization, originally founded in 2016 in response to the Syrian refugee crisis, is a trusted community partner serving refugees of different ethnicities and nationalities arriving in Madison.
