SUMMARY:Anna May Wong Double Feature: Shanghai Express & Daughter of Shanghai
DESCRIPTION:A rare screening of two Anna May Wong films on the rooftop of Ornithology Jazz Club.\n\n\nAnna May Wong\, considered Hollywood’s first Asian American film star\, had a groundbreaking career that spanned five decades and nearly every medium\, from silent films\, talkies\, and television to radio\, theatre\, and vaudeville. In response to the racism and sexism she faced as a Chinese American woman\, Wong continually reinvented herself on-screen\, often with spectacular results. \nShanghai Express (1932) and Daughter of Shanghai (1937) are perhaps two of the most important films she made in Hollywood during the 1930s. Join this double feature with author Katie Gee Salisbury\, one of Wong’s biographers\, who will introduce each film and answer questions following each screening with a brief intermission in between. Copies of her book\, Not Your China Doll: The Wild and Shimmering Life of Anna May Wong\, will also be available for sale. \nTickets are nonrefundable. Price includes admission to both film screenings and the cover for Ornithology’s jazz club. Cocktails will be available for purchase at the bar downstairs. \nSchedule \n8:00 pm – Doors open\n8:30 pm – Host Introduction + Shanghai Express\n10:00 pm – Intermission\n10:15 pm – Host Introduction + Daughter of Shanghai \nAbout the Films \nShanghai Express (122 mins)\, an entertaining ensemble piece\, follows a group of foreigners\, each with something to hide (including two women of ill repute)\, traveling by train from Peiping to Shanghai. When the train makes an unexpected stop in the middle of the night\, the first-class passengers are thrust into an unforeseen drama and find themselves collectively at the mercy of a dangerous Chinese revolutionary. Directed by Josef von Sternberg\, Marlene Dietrich stars as Shanghai Lily\, with a show-stopping supporting performance from Anna May Wong as Hui Fei. \nDaughter of Shanghai (62 mins) is based on a story supposedly ripped from the headlines about a human-trafficking ring smuggling undocumented immigrants into the U.S. When Lan Ying Lin (Anna May Wong) and her father accidentally discover the culprits\, her father is murdered and Lan Ying vows to avenge his death by exposing the crime syndicate behind the operation. Government agent Kim Lee (Philip Ahn) works in tandem with Lan Ying to catch the syndicate and at the same time falls in love with her. Directed by Robert Florey and written specifically as a starring vehicle for Wong\, the film established Wong and Ahn as the first Asian American actors to play a leading romantic couple in the sound era.

SUMMARY:MOCA PERFORMS – Little Red Riding Hood
DESCRIPTION:In partnership with Carnegie Hall’s United in Sound: America at 250\, MOCA is excited to present a series of music programs featuring composers\, musicians\, and performers.

Through this world-renowned tale\, audiences will experience acrobatics\, martial arts\, and elaborate costumes in a celebration of the nation’s rich cultural diversity and this enduring artistic tradition. This program is in partnership with Chinese Theater Works. \nFree Admission | Registration Required \nLocation: Open Door Senior Center | 168 Grand Street\, New York\, NY 10013 \n

SUMMARY:The Subconscious as Muse: A Workshop with Swati Sudarsan
DESCRIPTION:This workshop focuses on the generative potential of our subconscious creativities. Over a two-hour session\, we will first learn about the Jungian concepts of collective unconscious\, synchronicity\, and universal archetypes. We will use three different artist’s interpretations of tarot decks as prompts for a journaling exercise that will help us come up with characters\, and then a narrative for them. Then\, we will make word braids\, using strips of paper made of cut up interviews and poems by artists we admire. We will use these braids to create word banks\, and then draw on AAWW archival materials including poems\, testimonies\, and documents that trace the history of Asian American migration and belonging to inspire political poems that speak to immigration law\, resistance\, and the long fight for dignity and rights.

SUMMARY:Fandom-First: Reaching Gen Z Through Stories and Community on Webtoon
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Sienna Park\, Client Partner\, US Ads at WEBTOON\nIn this session\, Sienna will unpack what makes WEBTOON a cultural epicenter for Gen Z and how fandom-led campaigns turn real attention into real outcomes for brands.\nDo not miss your chance to hear directly from one of the platforms shaping how the next generation builds loyalty. \nGen Z lives beyond the feed — deeply immersed in the worlds they actually care about: serialized stories\, creator communities\, and fandoms that shape what goes mainstream. \nAsk any young person about WEBTOON\, and chances are\, they’re a fan. In this session\, we’ll unpack what makes WEBTOON a Gen Z cultural epicenter — where readers spend real time\, money\, and attention inside the stories they love — and how brands can show up natively in the spaces where this generation builds loyalty. You’ll leave with a clearer picture of Gen Z’s media habits\, what makes a fandom-led campaign work\, and how culture-defining platforms like WEBTOON help brands turn attention into real outcomes.
