Millions of people are moving across international borders in search of basic human needs, safety, jobs, and freedom from tyranny. What role should philanthropy play? How can we center the human experience at the heart of major national policy discussions? Join us for a visit to Richard Mosse’s Incoming, a powerful immersive video installation at the National Gallery of Art exploring the sights and sounds of mass migration. Afterward we will come together to reflect and discuss over lunch with our peers. 

When: Monday, February 17 (President’s Day), 11am-1pm

Where: National Gallery of Art, East Building, 4th Street NW

Maximum number of spaces available: 10
