Organizers, Museum of Chinese in America (MOCA)
Since its founding in 1980, the Museum of Chinese in America (MOCA) has celebrated the living history of the Chinese experience in America through its collecting and archiving work, exhibitions, and education and adult public programming. Located in Manhattan’s Chinatown, MOCA aims to engage audiences in an ongoing and historical dialogue, in which people of all backgrounds are able to see American history through a critical perspective, to reflect on their own experiences, and to make meaningful connections between: the past and the present, the global and the local, themselves and others.
