Walk through a history of the shared – similar yet very different – journeys of the Cambodian, Hmong, Lao, and Vietnamese communities, and Minnesota’s U.S. Vietnam Veterans, as they navigated war, refugee camps, and their eventual new lives in the United States.
Enjoy food concessions, craft vendors, entertainment, exhibits, artifacts, and much more, representing Minnesota’s vibrant Cambodian, Hmong, Lao, and Vietnamese communities, and Vietnam War era Veterans from their experiences in 1970s Southeast Asia to refugee camps and their harrowing journeys to Minnesota.

Join the Minnesota Humanities Center and Anderson Center for a moderated conversation with artists who create art addressing the representation of war and armed conflict. Artists will discuss their output, what it means to interpret experiences of warfare, and what the viewing public can learn from interaction with and discussion of these works.

The Minnesota Humanities Center invites you to join us for an engaging evening focused on stories of community, consolation, and courage. For Objects of War, participants are asked to bring an item connected to an experience of war and conflict — which could be dog tags, a service member’s good luck charm, or a family heirloom — and share the story of this item during the evening.
