On April 30. 2008, a photo exhibit highlighting the desperate seriousness of the Iraqi Refugee Crisis was held on Capitol Hill, in Washington, D.C. Ms. Gabriela Bulisova photographed the refugees at sites she recently visited in both Iraq and Syria. She was also one of the speakers at the event, which was sponsored by Refugees International, among other groups, and was held in room 2220 of the House Rayburn Building.
