Hustle to Worlds of Words where we have an exhibition titled “Hello, Dear Enemy!” on loan from the International Youth Library in Munich, Germany. While you’re here, rush the extra yardage to see our new World Language collection.
Grab a cup of joe before tailgating! We’ll have a coffee cart to get you warmed up for the game. Bear Down!
You’re invited to our open house! Even in homes where comfort and security are the rule, the media confronts children and adults with images of war, animosity, and displacement. Hello, Dear Enemy! is a traveling exhibit of posters and picturebooks in multiple world languages that provides a path to conversation. Join us as we celebrate its arrival and discuss its significance!

The news is bleak. Even in homes where comfort and security are the rule, the media confronts children and adults with images of war, animosity and displacement. Some are directly affected while others have many questions, and all seek answers. The traveling exhibit, Hello, Dear Enemy!, does not provide answers, but it does provide a path to conversation. Worlds of Words in the University of Arizona College of Education is the first stop for this powerful collection from the International Youth Library in Munich, Germany.
