In Transit: Arts & Migration in Europe
This fall, the Nasher Museum, Rubenstein Arts Center, John Hope Franklin Center and the David M. Rubenstein Rare Book & Manuscript Library have collaborated to present a multi-site art installation, In Transit: Arts & Migration Around Europe. At the Nasher Museum, In Transit: Arts & Migration Around Europe introduces, through art, a new history and context to the ongoing global refugee crisis.
