Welcoming Week Open House, 2025

Welcoming Week is an annual campaign that celebrates the amazing work done to make our community a welcoming place for all. This includes immigrants. Through Welcoming Week, neighbors of all backgrounds are brought together and given the opportunity to showcase their values through events and initiatives. This helps to build strong connections between immigrants and non-immigrants, affirm the importance of welcoming and inclusive places, and foster belonging for all.

Right here in Lincoln, Welcoming Week invites us all to celebrate. Last year, Lincoln’s Welcoming Week 2024 celebrated 41 different events, making it the largest Welcoming Week yet! This year, music, food, stories, and traditions from the many cultures in our community will be on display throughout the city.

Here at Lincoln Literacy, we’re delighted to participate. Join us Friday, September 12, from 4:30 – 6:30 PM for our Welcoming Week Open House, 2025, where you can learn about who we are, explore our office and classrooms, and meet staff, teachers, and other students. We’ll even throw in some music, food, treats, henna, crafts, and books! All are welcome!
