Are you a writer - storyteller - musician - creative - community member dabbling in the arts? Participate in The W.O.W. Project's Open Mic by filling out our Google Form now! While the event is open to everyone, we are looking for participants who identify as part of a diaspora and centers people of color.
Chinatown Movements: Open Mic Night is a night of stories and performances centering movements in our community! We know the personal is political, we know creative projects write our people into history, and we know that the arts are critical, always. We envision a night that embraces and holds all of that.
CHINATOWN MOVEMENTS: PAST, PRESENT, & FUTURES
Chinatown Movements: Past, Present, & Futures is an intergenerational series of five public events that highlight history and contemporary movements focused on labor, housing, and LGBTQ justice in Manhattan's Chinatown. The series includes panel discussions, film screenings, bilingual walking tours, and a culminating open mic. Chinatown Movements is the first series of its kind in the neighborhood to engage community members in understanding how we can learn and build from Chinatown's historic social movements to address similar, pressing present-day concerns.
