An Evening with Arn Chorn-Pond

Join Cambodian musician, internationally recognized humanitarian, and Cambodian Living arts founder Arn Chorn-Pond for an evening of music, storytelling and conversation. A survivor of the Khmer Rouge, Arn found healing through music and has spent decades sharing his story around the world. In a time of uncertainty and division, he invites us to reflect on resilience, empathy, healing, and the power of human connection. Through his flute, songs and stories, Arn reminds us that music can bring us together, help us heal, and hold onto our shared humanity.
