The event is hosted by Josef Herman Art Foundation and Welsh Centre for International Affairs.

This painting is "Refugees" by the artist Josef Herman from the Ben Uri Gallery Collection. Herman was a Jewish artist who fled his native Poland due to the rise of anti-Semitism prior to the Second World War. He lost his entire family in the Holocaust. He found his “home from home” in the Welsh village of Ystradgynlais, where he became part of the community.
During the course of the evening, three short films will be screened. These films have been made though a collaboration between local schools, the Syrian families who have moved to Ystradgynlais, Welfare Ystradgynlais, Michael Sheen, Ffilm Cymru and the Cardiff based animation company Winding Snake Productions
