Exciting 2025 Programs
1. Climate Bridges This ambitious project, supported by the U.S. State Department, combines a documentary film, a nine-month arts fellowship, and public programming to highlight U.S.-China collaboration on climate action. Featuring Chinese and American artists, Climate Bridges will:
Explore the creative processes of “artivists” tackling the climate crisis.
Mentor young artists through fellowships, equipping them to lead change.
Engage audiences across six Chinese cities with screenings, talkbacks, and service projects.
2. Women’s Gala 2025 and AAPI Mentorship Program Join us on May 22 at 583 Park Avenue as we celebrate AAPI women leaders and launch our new mentorship program. This initiative will pair past honorees with emerging talent, creating opportunities for connection and empowerment. More to come soon!
3. Expanding Voices Rising We're aiming to expand our Voices Rising series in 2025, spotlighting such AAPI trailblazers as those in healthcare, in the sports industry, and on Broadway, amplifying stories that inspire action.
And there's more! We'll be releasing a new brand image and website coming up early in the New Year! We are super excited!
