My Immigrant Story
Boston immigrants share their personal stories and cultural heritage through storytelling and the arts.
Many of us in Boston are immigrants or the children of immigrants. This adds rich, cultural diversity and perspectives to our communities. By sharing our experiences, we can understand each other better and be a stronger, welcoming City.
To learn more about our programs and events, visit the Mayor's Office for Immigrant Advancement homepage.
