Last Saturday, the Chinese American Museum celebra

Last Saturday, the Chinese American Museum celebrated a much anticipated Groundbreaking Ceremony in honor of the start of the Garnier Building Expansion project. The $3 million project will add approximately 3,000 square feet in gallery space under the supervision of architectural firm Pacific Design Group, general contractor Limestone, and project manager Cordoba Corporation @cordobacorp.

Both Congresswoman Judy Chu @repjudychu and Supervisor Hilda Solis @hildasolis have played key roles in advancing the museum’s growth. Recently, Representative Chu and her brother, Dean J. Chu, honored the memory of their parents with a contribution to champion the expansion plan. A motion by Supervisor Solis, the County Board of Supervisors approved an allocation of Prop A funds in support of the museum’s growth. The California Cultural and Historical Endowment (CCHE) has also contributed to the project. Representing CCHE is California Assemblymember Wendy Carrillo @asmcarrillo.

Additional support has been raised members of the FCAM’s Leadership Circle. These individuals donated $100,000 or more each to be used as seed money to start the project.

The Chinese American Museum is housed in the historic Garnier Building, built in 1890. It is one of the oldest surviving Chinese community structures in Southern California.

Thank you to all of our generous supporters who broke ground with us on this momentous occasion! @asmmikefong

上週六，華美博物館舉行了備受期待的動土典禮，正式啟動了嘉尼爾大樓擴建工程。這個耗資 300 萬美元的擴建計畫在泛亞建築事務所 (Pacific Design Group)、總承包商基石建設發展管理公司 (Limestone General Contractor Limestone) 及項目經理 Cordoba Corporation 的合作和監督下，將為博物館增加約3,000 平方呎的展覽廳。

聯邦眾議員趙美心 (Judy Chu) 及洛杉磯縣縣政委員蘇麗絲 (Hilda Solis) 在推動華美博物館擴建方面發揮了關鍵作用。趙美心與弟弟趙中求(Dean J. Chu) 為紀念其父母對擴建工程作出捐贈。蘇麗絲在洛縣議會中提出撥款動議，支持華美博物館發展。加州第51區眾議員卡瑞佑 (Wendy Carrillo) 代表加州文化暨歷史基金會 (CCHE) 向該項目捐款。

華美博物館之友 (FCAM) 特邀「領導圈」 (Leadership Circle)成員提供額外的捐贈支持。他們每人分別捐贈了10萬美元或以上，作為啟動該項目的種子資金。

華美博物館位於歷史悠久、建於 1890 年的嘉尼爾大樓內。它是南加州現存最古老的舊華埠建築物。

感謝大家及各支持者在這個重要時刻與我們一起參加動土禮！

Meet Ren (they/them), the second feature in our Instagram-exclusive mini-series!

Ren Ye @bratboybokchoy is a Chinese American creative born and raised in Chicago. Ren now lives in Los Angeles and is a full-time tattoo artist, drag performer, student, filmmaker, and fashion designer. Raised from a young age by two groups; their chosen family, and their blood-related family, Ren’s experience mirrors the struggles of many QPOC. Their motivation to keep creating comes from the QPOC individuals they've met along the way, and their longing to find an answer to a longstanding question: can one find a balance between familial obligation and personal satisfaction? Ren hopes that through their art, they can find that middle ground, while also becoming more in tune with their Chinese heritage.

Tune in for their Takeover and Q&A where you can ask about their craft Wednesday, Aug. 17 @ 12 – 4 pm PDT!

大家一起來認識Ren（他們/他們），這是我們在 Instagram 獨家迷你系列《聚焦本土》 (Locus) 中的第二位創作者！

Ren Ye是一位在芝加哥出生及長大的美籍華裔創作者。目前居於洛杉磯，是一位全職紋身藝術家、變裝演員、學生、電影製片人與時裝設計師。Ren Ye在他們所選擇的家庭、與他們有血緣關係的家人兩種環中成長，他的經歷反映了許多有色人種酷兒 (QPOC) 的掙扎。他們不斷創造的動力源於一路上所遇到的有色人種酷兒 (QPOC)，以及他們渴望找到一個長期存在的問題的答案：一個人能否在家庭義務與個人滿足之間找到平衡？Ren Ye希望從他們的藝術之中可以找到中間地帶，同時也更符合他們的中華傳統。

歡迎大家於8 月 17 日（星期三）中午12 時至下午 4時（美國太平洋時間）一起參加他們的講座，並可以詢問他們的手藝！

CAM is excited to feature another one of the incre

CAM is excited to feature another one of the incredible submissions from our “Community Xpression” initiative! Watch "Japanese American Concentration Camps", a stop motion short film by Marlowe Wan-Platt.

Marlowe is an 8.5 year old filmmaker based in Los Angeles, Tongvaland. Marlowe learned a great deal about the Japanese American concentration camps through many trips to the library and books written by Japanese Americans. She furthered her understanding of discrimination against Asian Americans by learning about the Chinese Exclusion Act and Wong Ark’s struggle as a Chinese American.

Thank you for sharing your Xpression, Marlowe!

There is still plenty of time to submit your artwork inspired by our current exhibition, “Collective Resilience.” To submit:

Step 1: Visit the Chinese American Museum and check out “Collective Resilience: Asian American Artists Honoring Our Community’s Strength and Unity”, or check out our link in bio to see the virtual exhibit!
Step 2: Create your own art that shows how Collective Resilience resonates with you.
Step 3: Submit your work to the link in our bio.

SUBMISSION DEADLINE is July 31, 2022!

Hello! My name is Gabbi Pulasky and I am the Publi

Hello! My name is Gabbi Pulasky and I am the Public Programming and Curatorial Intern here at CAM through the Getty-Marrow Internship Program. I am a junior at Cal State Fullerton working on two B.A.'s concurrently: one in American Studies and one in Women's and Gender Studies.

I have two younger sisters and was raised in an interracial Mexican-American household in Southern California. My culturally pluralistic environment would come to inspire the love I have for cultivating community at its intersections and discussing its challenges as it interacts with American institutions. Following the pandemic, I was only further inspired by what my peers and the generations before and after us have been doing for and with each other.

With my interests in librarianship, archival work, and museum programming, I am excited to learn here what I cannot necessarily learn from a Master’s in Library and Information Sciences, which I eventually hope to pursue: how to work collaboratively and support a community that has found ways to work around and demonstrate resilience and joy amidst widespread erasure. I have already found such a home in my first few days amongst the dedicated, and admittedly nerdy, staff here at CAM.

While I do love unity, I admittedly love winning card games, like Phase 10, more. I spend my free time brushing up on my card-playing strategy, engaging with sci-fi and fantasy in popular culture, and exploring local food and market spots. Nothing quite compares to the homemade kettle corn you can get at a farmer's market.

你好！我是 Gabbi Pulasky，通過華美博物館蓋蒂瑪蘿 (Getty Marrow) 實習計劃成為公共項目與策展實習生。我是加州州立大學富樂頓分校大三學生，目前攻讀兩個學士學位：一個是美國研究，另一個是婦女與性別研究。

我有兩個妹妹，我們在南加州一個美墨裔通婚的家庭長大。我的多元文化背景激勵我在社區互動時熱衷於探索挑戰。自從新冠疫情大流行之後，與我同齡者及前輩後輩彼此的互助行為進一步鼓舞了我。

憑藉我對圖書館學、檔案工作與博物館規劃的興趣，我很高興能在這裡學到一些我無法從圖書館與信息科學碩士那裡學到的東西，我最終希望追求：如何協調社區工作及找到解決方案，並在廣泛的行動中表現出毅力與喜悅。無可否認，作為一名書呆子，在我最初的幾天裡，我已融入華美博物館員工敬業的大家庭裡。

雖然我確實喜歡團結，但我承認更喜歡贏得第 10 階段的紙牌遊戲。我在空閒時會練習打牌策略，參與流行文化中的科幻想像，並探索當地的食品和市場。但沒有什麼能比得上在農夫市場買到的手工爆米花。

Join us for another Kids Storytime Featuring Asian

Join us for another Kids Storytime Featuring Asian American Children’s Authors on Tuesday, July 12th at 4pm PDT. Miss Rita will read, “Amah Faraway” written by Margaret Chiu Greanias and illustrated by Tracy Subisak.

A delightful story of a child's visit to a grandmother and home far away, and of how families connect and love across distance, language, and cultures. Kylie is nervous about visiting her grandmother-her Amah-who lives SO FAR AWAY. When she and Mama finally go to Taipei, Kylie is shy with Amah and the less-familiar language, customs, culture, and food. Kylie begins to see a new side of the things that used to scare her. Soon, Kylie is leading her Amah-Come see! Lái kàn kàn!-back through all her favorite parts of this place and having SO MUCH FUN!

This book is suited for children 3-6 years old, though we welcome children of all ages with parental supervision. Register now by following the link in bio.

Kid’s Story Time is hosted in partnership with the Chinatown Branch Library with stories read by Children’s Librarian, Rita Law.

About the Author:

Margaret Chiu Greanias is a children’s book author who writes children’s picture books with heart and humor, including “Maximillian Villainous,” “Amah Faraway,” and “Hooked on Books.” She lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with her husband, three children, and a fluffle of dust bunnies.

About the Illustrator:

Tracy Subisak’s art is the perfect blend of her love for visual design and engineering. She is the illustrator of “Grizzly Boy,” “Cy Makes A Friend,” “Shawn Loves Sharks,” and “Wood, Wire, Wings.” Tracy calls Portland her home but regularly adventures where inspiration takes her.

Hi everyone! My name is Dahlia Wang @dahlia.wang

Hi everyone! My name is Dahlia Wang @dahlia.wang and I am a Getty Marrow Intern at CAM, working on Digital Engagement. I am a rising junior pursuing a dual major in Asian American Studies and Art at Scripps College, part of the Claremont consortium.

Having grown up in the Midwest as part of a Chinese Taiwanese family, the environment around me didn't quite reflect my culture. Finding community during my time at college has been a fulfilling experience and I hope to create comfortable spaces for others like myself. I am continually working to explore what it means to embody multiple identities, especially with art as a medium. I love to spend my time making fun zines, on Duolingo, and attempting tricks on my Ripstik!

The Chinese American community is one that I am both a part of and hope to grow closer to during my time at CAM. I am excited for the next few weeks of learning and relationship-building with the rest of the CAM staff!

大家好！我是王欣麗 (Dahlia Wang)，今年華美博物館蓋蒂瑪蘿 (Getty Marrow) 數字參與實習生。我是斯克里普斯學院 (Claremont consortium) 美國亞裔研究暨藝術雙學科的新生。

作為台灣移民的家庭成員，我在美國中西部長大，周圍的環境無法反映我的文化。在大學期間投入社區將是一次充實的經歷，我希望為情況與我相若者創造舒適的空間。我一直致力於以藝術為媒介的情況中，探索體現多重身份的意義。我喜歡花時間在 Duolingo 上製作趣味的雜誌，並在我的扭扭滑板 (Ripstik) 上嘗試技巧！

作為美國華人社區的一份子，我希望在華美博物館實習期間與他們更加接近。在接下來的幾周裡，我很高興能與華美博物館的其他員工一起學習和建立關係！

Thanks to all the speakers, staff, volunteers, and

Thanks to all the speakers, staff, volunteers, and community members who joined us for the 40th Anniversary of the Murder of Vincent Chin last night. We are encouraged to see the community come together in commemoration of Vincent Chin, whose brutal death sparked an outpouring of unity across the Asian American community and a call for justice nationwide for his murderers.

Today, 40 years later, our community continues to face violent anti-Asian sentiments. As we remember Chin, we mourn the increasing hatred targeting our community, inspiring us to fight for a better future without the fear of violence in our communities.

To watch the full recording of the event, check out our link in bio.

感謝昨晚與我們一起參加陳果仁 (Vincent Chin) 遇害 40 週年的所有演講者、工作人員、義工及社區成員。我們很高興看到社區民眾聚集一起悼念陳果仁，他的殘酷死亡引發了美國亞裔社區的團結，並呼籲在全國範圍內為他的遇害伸張正義。

40 年後的今天，我們的社區繼續面對著反亞裔暴力及情緒。當我們想起陳果仁時，我們為針對我們社區日益增長的仇恨而哀悼，這激勵我們要為更美好的未來而奮戰，而不必擔心社區中的暴力。

His death sparked an outpouring of unity across the Asian American community and a call for justice nationwide as his murderers never received any jail time.

This year’s commemoration will be held in person at the El Pueblo Historical Monument Kiosko Plaza. In honor of Vincent Chin, there will be a candlelight vigil, speakers, performances, music, and more.

Join us for another Kids Storytime Featuring Asian

Join us for another Kids Storytime Featuring Asian American Children’s Authors on June 16, 2022 at 4pm PDT. Miss Rita will read, “Little Messy Marcy Su” written by Cherie Fu and Julie Kwon.

A story about messiness that any child and parent can relate to -- featuring a unique Chinese-American, intergenerational twist. Marcy Su couldn't help make messes, track mud on the floors, and get stains on her dresses. But Mama has had enough! Waipo and Waigong are visiting today, and Marcy's room is a disgrace. What will her grandparents think? Not to worry—Marcy knows just what to do!

This book is suited for children 4-8 years old, though we welcome children of all ages with parental supervision. Register now by following the link in bio.

Kid’s Story Time is hosted in partnership with the Chinatown Branch Library with stories read by Children’s Librarian, Rita Law.

About the Authors:

Cherie Fu was raised by immigrants, in a home filled with the garlicky aroma of wok-fried food and the crackling of mahjong tiles. When she became the mother of two audacious little girls, a creative interest was ignited. Inspired by childhood's wondrous humor and optimism, she began imagining characters and telling stories that reflected her own family's cultural experience. Little Messy Marcy Su is her debut picture book. She lives in Austin with her messy husband and even messier daughters.

Julie Kwon is an artist and illustrator based in Philadelphia, where she can often be found either making a mess or procrastinating on cleaning one up. A graduate of the Brown/RISD Dual-Degree program, her work is heavily inspired by the many books and comics she read growing up, as well as her childhood memories of wandering in the woods of her hometown. In addition to Little Messy Marcy Su, she has illustrated The Fearless Flights of Hazel Ying Lee and Peter Lee's Notes from the Field. Julie invites you to visit her website at juliekwonart.com.
