Where do you call home - world map

Where do you call HOME? 

OMA cares about where you call home. Our Assistant director, Mariah Salloum, launched her map project last Friday to encourage students to show others where they call home. Many students have already engaged with it and are sharing with others about their homes. When you come to OMA, you’ll see them posted on our walls. Stop in, grab one or two stickers, and show us where your special place(s) in this world are!
