A Virtual Benefit for the Asian American Arts Alliance
Tickets are still available to join the interactive Zoom! Or watch free, live on Facebook, at 7 PM HERE.
Join A4 for our first virtual benefit performance!
We're thrilled to invite you to participate in our first virtual benefit performance! We have commissioned A4’s 2020 Van Lier Fellow, Miranda Cornell, and 2016 Van Lier fellow, Seonjae Kim, to create a one-time only, interactive series of plays centered around food and community. And this year, we are excited to honor bestselling author Jenny Han (To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before) as our A4 Inspiration Icon.
The plays will feature performances by the acclaimed actress and comedian Amy Hill, Purva Bedi, Megan Masako Haley, Maekalah Ratsabout, and Jason Tam. The event will also feature an appearance by dancer, artistic director, and 2020 Jadin Wong fellow Rohan Bhargava; illustrations by Felicia Liang; and more!
Buy a ticket at $100 or more to receive special access to the event through Zoom, which will allow you to interact with and make decisions for the performers, participate in a post-event Q&A, and receive a cookbook ‘zine illustrated by Felicia Liang and other special gifts!
Just want to watch without interacting? The event will also be livestreamed for free on Facebook.
