2/11/08 - Living in America: HAPA Identity Panel Discussion

Thursday, January 17th, 2008

Panel Discussion: Mixed Asian Identity and the Creative Arts
論壇:混血亞裔身份認同以及創新藝術

What defines a HAPA? Is there a general definition or do their identities lay within themselves? These questions and more will be discussed on the panel of artists in relation to their own individual art styles as well as the increasingly popular general genre of HAPA art. Partnering with Asia Society, Chinese Culture Center proudly hosts this panel that includes a range of artists of mixed Asian descent — a musician, a visual artist, a filmmaker and a writer. Similar to our very own In Search of Roots Program, in which we help young individuals, of many were HAPA, find their heritage in many of their own diverse backgrounds and cultures, this discussion will further an understanding about the complexity of our rapidly changing community.
