“Witness,” a multimedia performance and album by photojournalist and musician Tamir Kalifa, draws audiences into the human stories behind the headlines.

Tamir’s work has been published in The New York Times, Texas Monthly, NPR and others and his intimate documentation of the families in Uvalde, Texas, after the Robb Elementary School shooting earned him recognition from the Chris Hondros Fund and the American Mosaic Journalism Prize.
