SUMMARY:What We Carry 唐人街 - Curated by Jordon Hon 韓寶軒 and Shawn Tse 謝兆龍
DESCRIPTION:How does art play a role in the evolution of our cultural spaces? \nWe often think of Chinatowns as places to preserve and honour the past. But how do we embrace evolution while fostering decolonization\, inclusion\, and community ownership? We don’t have clear answers for the future of Chinatown\, but our work in the community is driven by knowing how interconnected Chinatown is with major issues we face as a society. \nThese works inspired by Edmonton’s Chinatown carry stories of intergenerational relationships\, healing\, and deep community bonds greater than we can put into words. We hope this art will inspire critical reflections of our cultural spaces and continue to expand our imaginations for what Chinatown can be. \n藝術在文化空間的演進該扮演什麽角色? \n我們經常想唐人街是一個保存文化和榮耀過去的地方。但是當我們面對著促進反殖民化、包容化及社區擁有權的時候， 我們能如何迎接文化的演變呢？對於唐人街的未來我們沒有清晰的答案， 但是，我們在社區内的工作是由明白到唐人街與切身重要的社會問題互相交接而驅使的。 \n這些作品都是發自遠遠超過文字可以表達的埃德蒙頓市唐人街跨年代的人際關係、創傷復原、及深厚的社區關係。我們希望這些作品能引發大家對文化空間 這個課題  進行嚴謹的反思和繼續擴張我們對一個理想的唐人街的構想。

SUMMARY:Chinese Societies: A Home Away From Home
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the Alberta premiere of\n\n\nThe Paper Trail: The Highlights Tour\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nfollowed by a special panel discussion\n\n\nChinese Societies\n\n\nA HOME AWAY FROM HOMEfrom the time of exclusion until now\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Chinese Exclusion Act of 1923 is a tragic yet largely forgotten chapter of Canadian history\, profoundly impacting the lives of Chinese across Canada for nearly a quarter century. The only law in Canadian history to deny entry to Canada on the basis of race\, this Act separated families and resulted in lasting generational trauma in the Chinese Canadian community\, including those in Edmonton. \n​ \nJoin us for a free screening and the Alberta premiere of The Paper Trail: The Highlights Tour. The film documents the Chinese Canadian Museum’s feature exhibition in Vancouver\, BC. Following the film\, we will host a special panel discussion on the role of Chinese Societies during the time of exclusion with Sue Mah\, Sarah Ling\, and Larry Chin. As part of the fabric of Chinese communities since early settlement\, Chinese Societies have played an integral role both during and after the Exclusion Act era.  \n​ \nLearn about the evolving purpose of Chinese Societies and more! \n​ \nSaturday\, June 8\, 2024\n2:00pm to 3:30pm\nMah Society of Edmonton\n9643 101A Avenue\, NW\, Edmonton\n\n\nReserve Your Seat\nhttps://journeyofthehorseyeg.wixsite.com/home/special-project/film
