SUMMARY:Exhibit:  "The Monkey King in Chinatown" by AAPI Comic Book and Graphic Novel Artists
DESCRIPTION:The Monkey King is the epitome of tricksterdom. First appearing in the 14th-century Chinese novel\, “Journey to the West\,” the character born as Sun Wukong embodies rebellion\, individualism\, and daring. He’s also the inspiration behind the stunning works in this exhibition. \nCurator Jerry Ma’s modern Monkey King idea began with his first exhibition at Pearl River Mart\, A CHINATOWN ODYSSEY (which inspired his graphic novel). This solo show was his reimagining of the mythical creature and his legendary cohorts on adventures — and misadventures — throughout NYC’s Chinatown. \nThis new exhibition\, featuring the works of eight renowned AAPI comic book and graphic novel artists\, furthers those adventures. The pieces reimagine the simian folk hero as everything from a punk rocker to a dancing king to a ferocious b-baller. They place him in iconic Chinatown spots\, like Columbus Park with its Chinese chess enthusiasts\, the Canal Street subway station (complete with pizza rat)\, a lively dim sum eatery\, and the Transfiguration Church and beloved Hop Kee restaurant. \nThey connect the past with the present\, bringing a Chinese legend into a Chinese American community\, and beyond. They make him part of that community. Eating\, dancing\, playing\, and laughing alongside its members. \nThe exhibition also features the artists’ works from their careers as comic book and graphic novel artists\, and is accompanied by installations in Chelsea Market and the outdoor tables of the Meatpacking District. Both framed and unframed prints are available for purchase. \nThe featured artists: \n\nBernard Chang\nSean Chen\nCliff Chiang\nSoo Lee\nHoward Ma\nJerry Ma (curator)\nJerome Opeña\nKimberly Wang

SUMMARY:[REPLAY] Foundations 2025: "Modernity" and Institutional Racism
DESCRIPTION:Register to view the workshop recording\, taking a deep dive into understanding systemic racism and global “modernity.”\n\n\nInstitutional Racism and “Modernity” (Recording) \nThis session recording takes a deep dive into understanding systemic racism\, with a focus on institutional racism as the historical engine of global “modernity.” \nAll are welcome. We offer these trainings in order to equip you with histories and critical frameworks that can deepen the work of antiracism in your lives and in your communities. This three-part series intentionally integrates what is often left out of general racial justice education: AAPI experiences and decolonial values. They represent our beliefs and values as an organization and are the foundation for organizing emergent community-led labs for mutual care\, community-building\, collaboration and innovation. \nThe facilitator for this series is AAJIL’s founder and Co-Executive Director\, Dr. Sandra So Hee Chi Kim. She is an adjunct professor of race and ethnic studies at Cal State LA and a visiting scholar in USC’s Department of American Studies and Ethnicity. Her research explores the intersections of race\, global coloniality\, migration\, and culture. Her articles have appeared in Diaspora: A Journal of Transnational Studies\, Positions: Asia Critique\, Korean Studies\, Discourse: Journal for Theoretical Studies in Media and Culture\, and Occasion: Interdisciplinary Studies in the Humanities. She is currently working on a book manuscript entitled The Kinship of Empires: Transpacific Coloniality and Korean Historical Trauma. \nThe Asian American Justice + Innovation Lab (AAJIL) is a community racial justice incubator committed to education\, community-building\, and innovation for promoting justice\, radical love\, and emergence. \nAll workshop donations go directly towards covering AAJIL’s operating costs. As a completely volunteer-run organization\, we are so grateful for your financial support! \nwww.aajil.org \nwww.instagram.com/aajil_org/ \n \nYou will be able to access the link by signing into your Eventbrite and viewing links from Get Tickets or going the link under Location with View Event Details. \nApplication for our Formations Program ’25-’26 available now.

SUMMARY:CAEG & HK Ballet present The Butterfly Lovers – Use Discount Code "HKB30" for 30% off
DESCRIPTION:Use “HKB30” when you purchase your tickets for a 30% discount!\nAn eternal love that defies all expectations. Reimagined by an international team of creative minds together with Hong Kong Ballet’s Choreographer-in-Residence Hu Song Wei Ricky and Mai Jingwen\, The Butterfly Lovers is a legendary Chinese folktale about humble scholar Liang Shanbo and aristocratic heiress Zhu Yingtai\, who disguises herself as a boy in order to study at a prestigious academy. From innocently meeting as students and forging a strong\, immediate bond to dangerously rebelling against centuries-old forces that threaten to keep them apart\, the lovers face unexpected challenges at every turn\, as secrets are revealed and a shocking family betrayal ultimately seals their fate. \nWith a sweeping original score by acclaimed Chinese composer Tian Mi with New York City Ballet Orchestra under the baton of Lio Kuokman (The Philadelphia Inquirer as “a startling conducting talent”)\, this powerful tale of forbidden love and filial duty features Academy Award winner Tim Yip’s (movie Crouching Tiger\, Hidden Dragon and Webre’s The Great Gatsby) visually stunning sets and costumes that bring to life a world with traditional and modern elements. Transcendent and uplifting\, The Butterfly Lovers is a glorious fusion of inspiring dance\, contemporary Chinese aesthetics and eternal hope. \nThis production won 6 major awards at the 26th Hong Kong Dance Awards 2025\, including Outstanding Choreography and Outstanding Ensemble Performance. \nPhoto credit: Hong Kong Ballet

SUMMARY:Book Talk: Where are You Really From by Elaine Hsieh Chou
DESCRIPTION:For this Book Club discussion with the author\, we’ll be discussing Background: A Short Story. Read it first here! \n\nFrom the critically-acclaimed author of Disorientation\, a multi-genre story collection that \n\nexplores the limits and possibilities of storytelling. \nA mail order bride from Taiwan is packed up in a cardboard box and sent via express shipping to California\, where her much older husband awaits her. Two teenage girls meticulously plan how to kill and cook their downstairs neighbor. An American au pair moves to Paris to find herself\, only to find her actual French doppelgänger. A father reunites with his estranged daughter in unusual circumstances: as a background actor on the set of her film. And in “Casualties of Art\,” a writer’s affair with a married artist tests the line between fact and fiction\, self-victimization and the victimization of others. \nIn these six singular stories and a novella that pivot from the terrible to the beautiful to the surreal\, Elaine Hsieh Chou confronts the slipperiness of truth in storytelling. With razor-sharp precision and psychological acuity\, she peels back the tales we tell ourselves to peer beneath them: at our treacherous desires\, our self-deceptions and our capacity for cruelty\, both to ourselves and each other. Expansive and provocative\, Where Are You Really From is a visionary achievement. \n\n\nABOUT THE AUTHOR\n\n\nElaine Hsieh Chou is a Taiwanese American author and screenwriter from California. Described as “the funniest\, most poignant novel of the year” by Vogue\, her debut novel Disorientation was a New York Times Editors’ Choice Book\, New York Public Library Young Lions Fiction Award finalist and Thurber Prize finalist. A former Rona Jaffe Graduate Fellow at New York University\, her Pushcart Award–winning short fiction appears in Guernica\, Black Warrior Review\, Tin House Online\, Ploughshares and The Atlantic\, while her essays appear in The Cut and Vanity Fair. She is a Fred R. Brown Literary Award recipient\, a Sundance Episodic Lab Fellow and a Gotham Series Creator to Watch. Her work has been supported by the Harry Ransom Center\, the New York Foundation for the Arts and Hedgebrook’s Writers-in-Residence Program.
