KAMA DC is a grassroots organization that provides a platform for immigrants in the Washington, DC area to share their skills and stories.

Imagine a photography workshop, a storytelling night, a Persian language class, a Thai cooking class, a seminar on Central American history or Ethiopian cuisine – and many more. The classes are as diverse as the people teaching them!

The idea is simple: By learning from each other, KAMA builds connections between groups who tend to interact on rare occasions. We facilitate dialogue and mutual understanding and empower both instructors and attendees to foster positive relationships and build community. The KAMA initiative has already been successful in several Austrian and German cities and we are excited to bring it to the DMV.

KAMA DC is run entirely by volunteers who are passionate about building ties, facilitating cultural exchanges, and starting conversations.
