The third annual One Journey Festival takes place on June 25, 2022 on the lawn of Washington National Cathedral - rain or shine.

One: as in unity and connection.

Journey: as in destination and voyage of humanity.

One Journey Festival celebrates the talents, stories and contributions of refugees and other displaced people around the world. This family-friendly festival brings people together through our modern-day shared languages of humanity: art, food, music, dance, storytelling, soccer and technology.

One Journey's mission is to celebrate and amplify the voices of refugees, engaging people to connect, learn, and become enduring allies of those who are displaced. We’ve charted a movement to shine a positive light on refugees and inspire all to take action to build welcoming communities for our displaced brothers and sisters.

Visit www.onejourneyfestival.org for more information. Coming soon on the full program lineup and speakers. Register HERE for a free ticket.

What would you do if you had to leave everything behind?

By the end of 2025, more than 117.8 million people worldwide had been forcibly displaced by war, persecution, or human rights abuses — and 45 million of them are children.

They arrive in refugee camps and countries seeking safety and carrying little: legal papers, if they're lucky. A backpack. A child's hand in theirs.

What they carry that we can't see is heavier: fractured families, homes they'll never return to, professions they loved, friends and relatives they may never see again.

In a climate where immigrant stories are often ignored or twisted, we believe stories are a form of justice. When someone shares what they survived, they reclaim their voice. When we amplify it through film, photography, and advocacy, the world listens. Hearts soften. Policy begins to shift.

Because when a lawmaker sees a person instead of a statistic, and a neighbor understands instead of fears, rebuilding becomes possible.

Your support helps us share these stories where they matter most.
