SUMMARY:Voices of the Valley: A Community Movie Night and Panel Discussion at UC Davis
DESCRIPTION:Join us May 13th\, 5:30 – 7:30 for 3 Chinese American documentaries + discussion panel at 1002 Cruess Hall at UC Davis. \nWe often think of Chinatowns in cities like San Francisco or New York when we think about Chinese communities. But the Chinese were a key part of California’s agricultural history. What can we learn about these Chinese communities in rural areas? \nExperience three short Chinese American documentaries that capture these stories: \nChicago Cafe follows the Fongs as they prepare to close their family’s century-old restaurant in Woodland—a poignant reflection on legacy and what it means to walk away from a place that’s been a fixture in the Woodland community. \n​Rising documents multiple generations of the Wing family who preserved Hanford’s China Alley\, and the ramifications of a fire that destroyed its historic Taoist Temple Museum. \n​Voices — Women of the Delta amplifies the often-overlooked stories of women from historic Locke\, CA who struggled and thrived despite the hardships they faced in the 20th century. \n​This event is hosted by the 1882 Foundation in collaboration with the UC Davis Department of Asian American Studies\, Department of Cinema and Digital Media\, and the Pan-Asian Youth Coalition. \nJoin us for a discussion after the screening\, offering an opportunity to learn and share stories about our collective history. Panelists include: \nProfessor Jack Chin: A teacher and scholar of Immigration Law\, Criminal Procedure\, and Race and Law at UC Davis\, his research identified the Chicago Cafe as the longest continuously operating Chinese restaurant in the state. \nArianne Wing: ​Arianne is a writer\, preservationist\, and President of the China Alley Preservation Society in Hanford\, California. She is dedicated to restoring and honoring the legacy of Hanford’s historic China Alley\, where her family operated restaurants since 1883\, including the acclaimed Imperial Dynasty. \nCarol Lee: A member of the Locke Foundation’s Oral History Project\, Carol helped produce the documentary Voices — Women of the Delta. Currently\, Carol serves on the board of Locke PRDA which is working to save the historic Star Theater in Locke\, CA. \nConnie Chan Robison: A graduate of UC Davis with degrees in Biological Sciences and Political Science\, Connie Chan Robison is the Executive Director of the Center for Collaborative Planning\, a center of the Public Health Institute. Connie is featured as one of the residents of Locke in Voices — Women of the Delta.

SUMMARY:Beyond the Archives: Art\, Identity\, and the Chinese Diaspora
DESCRIPTION:This event has in-person locations in both Washington DC and Sacramento. Please be sure to check the location when registering for this event. \nJoin us for a conversation with Chinese diasporic artists Bz Zhang\, Evelyn Hang Yin\, Connie Zheng\, and SK Tsang as they share their current and past work and reflect on how identity shapes the stories we tell. Each artist will discuss how they’ve navigated (or worked outside of) historical institutions and art spaces to create work that challenges inherited narratives and imagines new futures for Chinese diasporic communities in the United States. This discussion will be followed by an in-person art activity. \nThis event is held in collaboration with the GIVE FACE 给面子 (Gěimiànzi) exhibition and the Yolo County Historic Collection. \nGIVE FACE 给面子 (Gěimiànzi) is an interdisciplinary exhibition unearthing and regrounding past\, present\, and future narratives of Chinese diaspora in the Sacramento Valley in the sweeping and ever-expanding story of what we currently call California. Historical objects trace the impact of Chinese Americans on Yolo County through the things they left behind\, while contemporary artworks woven throughout the exhibit call our attention to their lived experiences\, intimacies\, and complexities. Using both documentation and speculation\, artist Bz Zhang’s work creates dialog between Western ideas and a Chinese-diasporic cultural inheritance and offers ways to “give face” to (that is\, to honor or show due respect for) Chinese ancestors in the US West. The stories of Chinese diaspora in Yolo County and the US West span oceans and continents\, and their contributions transcend our infrastructures (from railways to agriculture) into the social and cultural fabric of our nation. \nThe Yolo County Historical Collection is comprised of 11\,000 objects which date from the 1830s to the 1930s. The collection includes textiles\, agricultural equipment\, paintings\, archival materials\, ephemera\, photographs\, archaeological items\, tools\, ceramics\, household items\, furniture\, and personal items. This collection illustrates what life was like for early Yolo County residents. The Yolo County Historical Collection is displayed at the Gibson House and at Yolo County Library Branches. \nCan’t make it in person? Join via Zoom!
