Through photos, documents, cultural artifacts, and video recordings of first-person narratives, Between Two Worlds tells refugees? stories in their own words, tracing their lives amidst U.S. bombings and other attempts to ?contain? communism in Southeast Asia in general and Laos in particular, and of their journeys from their homes in Laos to reeducation camps, to refugee camps, to finding new homes in the United States.

The Center for Lao Studies formed a team of cultural consultants, historians, museum professionals, graphic designers, media specialists, and writers who spent more than a year researching and planning the project prior to putting the physical exhibit together.
