Abstract
This article describes an initiative to connect a small refugee community with the city of Athens using cultural sightseeing as a medium for creating meaningful socio‐cultural experiences and the sharing and exchange of past memories. The sightseeing experience led to an impromptu exhibition in a refugee camp in the outskirts of Athens that was co‐created by a group of teenagers from Iraq, Syria and Kurdistan. The article reports on the context and process of this undertaking and the challenges this experience entailed. The project proved an empowering experience for all those involved and a learning experience for future initiatives of this kind.
