Exhibition opening: Legacy of Hungarians in the US

On September 10,  Eötvös Károly Library will host the opening of the traveling roll-up exhibition titled “The Legacy of Hungarians in the United States,” which was created as part of an international collaboration marking the 250th anniversary of the United States. 🤝

The exhibition presents the 250-year history of Hungarian emigration to the United States, key locations of Hungarian-American communities, and the personal and family stories that have shaped the history of Hungarian-American relations. 🥰

What makes this exhibition unique is that it presents historical processes not merely through dates and events, but through the stories of people, families, communities, and places.   📜

The project brings together Hungarian and American public collections, academic institutions, civil society organizations, and researchers to showcase the heritage of the Hungarian diaspora.
