Washington Post journalist Jason Rezaian spent 545 days isolated in an Iranian prison, a political hostage unjustly tried and convicted for doing what journalists do across the globe. Now he's free, and the National Press Club will throw a welcome home event on March 14 to celebrate his return. The gathering will double as a way to cheer on our colleague as well as call attention to the challenges faced by journalists everywhere.

When: March 14, 7 p.m. -10 p.m.

Where: The National Press Club Ballroom, 529 14th St NW, 13th Floor

Who: NPC members, Washington Post colleagues and invited guests

Press coverage: While this is a private event for Jason's colleagues, NPC members and invited guests, there will be space for reporters and cameras covering the event. Media must RSVP by March 11 to [email protected] for credentials.
