BOISE, Idaho — World Refugee Day officially happened on Thursday, but Saturday is when people came together in a big way to celebrate the refugees here in the Treasure Valley.
In the Grove Plaza people could find culture from all over the world in the form of food, crafts and music.
One of the booths we ran into is called Artisans for Hope, this non-profit organization run by volunteers, welcomes refugees and teaches them how to sew.

"We build on the artistic creativity that they bring from their home countries," said Fran Caprai, the executive director of Artisans of Hope. "They all come together, they all laugh and they all learn."
