Belonging: Building a Better Tucson, a Joint Production of Odyssey Storytelling and Iskashitaa Refugee Network

In a time of uncertainty, fear and misinformation, this evening shines a light on truth, resilience, and community.
Five refugees and asylum-seekers from around the world—now part of the fabric of Tucson—shared powerful, personal stories of rebuilding, contribution, and hope. These are stories of giving back: learning, growing, creating art, fostering connection, and shaping a stronger community for all of us.

These moving performances remind us what belonging really means—and how we all benefit when everyone has a place to call home. The storytellers are:
Shamsadin Zamani
Benson Gasanga
Rebecca Ursule
Audace Mbonyingingo
Sara Haghighi

Featuring the Wilondja & Family Singers

Produced and curated by Laura Porfirio and Barbara Eiswerth
