SUMMARY:Stephanie Chou: Chinatown Dreams
DESCRIPTION:Following April’s successful performance of Comfort Girl\, Stephanie brings her band back to Joe’s Pub for a performance of entirely different material! Stephanie Chou is a composer/saxophonist/singer who blends influences from her Chinese heritage with Western jazz and pop to create a bracingly original sound. Tonight’s show will feature live premieres of newly-written material and fan favorites from her eclectic and wide-ranging body of work. \nChinatown Dreams is a songwriting album following the journey of a young\, second-generation Chinese-American woman\, as she and her Chinatown community go through a year of tremendous challenges. This semi-autobiographical story examines the conflict between choosing the safe\, expected path vs. following one’s heart\, a conflict so many second-generation Americans of all sorts face. Chinatown Dreams will be a concept album written for her band\, with lyrics in English and Mandarin. The music combines the energy of improvised jazz with the precision of progressive rock\, in an homage to Manhattan’s Chinatown.

SUMMARY:Share Your Chinatown Placekeeping Story
DESCRIPTION:Come share your favorite memories and experiences of preserving and celebrating Chinatown’s rich cultural heritage with us!\n\n\nShare Your Chinatown Placekeeping Story \nWe invite you to participate in reclaiming and reasserting our own narratives  through telling our own stories of resilience and resistance in Chinatown. In the face of rapid displacement of working class immigrant tenants and the ongoing construction of the tallest jail in the world\, we know that Chinatown has always been a site of resistance and resilience. \nAt this story gathering event we’ll be capturing people’s audio stories about Chinatown. Bring stories about your favorite places\, people\, sights and sounds of Chinatown – past and present. Share your hopes for a justice-oriented future for Chinatown. Excerpts of these recorded stories will be shared at a late September public event. Some may also be included in a mobile audio walking tour that will be launched at the end of September. \nThe workshop will be led by media artist Megan Hattie Stahl and Chinatown Art Brigade co-founder Betty Yu. \nAbout Borough Based Liberation Project  \nspace provided by Immigrant Social Services’ Storefront for Ideas \nThe Borough Based Liberation Project is a series of neighborhood cultural events and interventions to collectively vision abolition\, climate justice\, migrant justice\, and housing futures in New York City. For the month of September\, our project will activate this storefront to serve as a centralized hub for our organizing. As our communities converge\, learn\, and share together\, we will co-create an intersectional space that connects our local and global struggles to build solidarity and power. The project’s “Abolitionist Futures” theme will spotlight local resistance and link struggles for liberation from NYC to Palestine through art workshops\, exhibitions\, teach-ins\, gatherings\, performances\, and celebrations. \n
