SUMMARY:Exhibition - LEGENDS: Athleticism in Asian/American Art
DESCRIPTION:LEGENDS: Athleticism in Asian/American Art explores the intersection of art and sports through the work of contemporary Asian and Asian American artists. While often considered distinct fields\, this exhibition highlights how sport and artistic expression serve as interconnected arenas. Featuring artists and collectives across a wide range of artistic media\, LEGENDS examines how artists of Asian descent engage with the shared language of art and sport to reflect identity\, nationalism\, the body\, and performance.  \nThe first exhibition to specifically focus on the relationship between art and sports within contemporary Asian and Asian American art\, LEGENDS will debut works by The Chinatown Basketball Club\, Kaarina Chu Mackenzie\, and Astria Suparak.

SUMMARY:Play - JESA (Final Performances)
DESCRIPTION:JESA by Jeena Yi\, directed by Mei Ann Teo\, is a riotous and heart-wrenching new play that explodes the idea of the “perfect family gathering.” When four estranged Korean American sisters reunite in Orange County to perform their father’s Jesa—a traditional ritual honoring the dead—old wounds erupt\, secrets surface\, and ghosts (literal and emotional) refuse to stay buried. With razor-sharp dialogue\, explosive humor\, and unexpected tenderness\, JESA asks how we honor our ancestors when we can barely stand each other. Come for the sibling brawls and burning shrimp\, stay for the aching truth of what binds us.  \nEnjoy $10 off all performances with discount code: MAYIJESA

SUMMARY:China Institute Lunch and Learn
DESCRIPTION:Join us virtually to explore Chinese medicine as a living cultural tradition and learn how Chinese ideas about the body\, nature\, and balance have shaped daily life for thousands of years. \nTraditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has evolved over centuries\, offering a distinctive way of understanding health\, the body\, and the world around us. Rooted in observations of nature and grounded in philosophical ideas such as yin and yang\, qi\, and seasonal harmony\, Chinese medicine reflects a holistic view of life that connects the human body with the environment\, community\, and time. Exploring these concepts offers a meaningful pathway to understanding Chinese culture\, history\, and ways of living. \nWe will explore core cultural concepts in Chinese medicine\, including balance and harmony\, seasonal living\, food and herbs as everyday supports\, and gentle mind–body practices. We will highlight how these ideas have influenced daily routines\, dietary habits\, and wellness practices across Chinese history and into the present day.
