MAMF’S “HOST NATION HOSPITALITY” EXHIBIT OPENS IN GERMANY
“Host Nation Hospitality” opened on German-American Day (October 6th). The event started with Mozart’s Duo for Violin and Viola, glasses of sparkling wine, and freshly baked breadsticks. After the speeches, the guests wandered through the exhibit of 17 individual panels depicting aspects of military life and culture—and their various intersections with Host Nations. The beautifully decorated tables provided the guests a place to mingle, make introductions, and converse over a drink or snack.
This exhibit was a collaboration between many people and organizations, and it serves as a companion to our anthology, “Host Nation Hospitality,” available for purchase on Amazon.
We extend our thanks to all of our sponsors who made the exhibit possible and to all of the authors who contributed a story to the anthology, to MAMF’s 2020-2022 Writer-in-Residence Valerie Bonham Moon and Allen Dale Olson, who wrote the text for the panels, as well as Barbara Beck Azar who created the graphics. We also thank Mayor Lahl and the town of Weil in Schonbuch for their hospitality.
