SUMMARY:Screening - Stanley Kwan’s CENTER STAGE
DESCRIPTION:International superstar Maggie Cheung (IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE) embodies tragic screen siren Ruan Lingyu\, known as the “Greta Garbo of China\,” in this unconventional biopic by Hong Kong New Wave master Stanley Kwan (ROUGE). Praised for her moving and emotive onscreen presence\, Ruan’s private life\, which was frequent fodder for the vicious Shanghai tabloids\, began to mirror the melodramas which brought her fame\, culminating in her suicide at age 24. Kwan and Cheung paint a kaleidoscopic yet intimate portrait of the ill-fated actress\, deftly blending lush period drama\, archival footage\, and metatextual documentary sequences of Cheung reflecting on Ruan’s legacy. The result is\, much like the films of Ruan Lingyu themselves\, “tender\, vivid\, and almost overwhelmingly moving” (Time Out). \nUse code AAARI for $4 discount.

In 2025\, civic partnerships brought in approximately $350\,000\, making it El Tímpano’s second-largest source of revenue. \n​In this session you’ll learn how to: \n\n\n​The basics of a civic partnerships strategy and how to determine if it’s right for you \n\n\n​How to retain editorial independence while earning revenue from civic and nonprofit agencies \n\n\n​The steps to develop a civic partnerships strategy in your organization

SUMMARY:Asian American Forum: Pioneering Radio Program Reunion Panel
DESCRIPTION:A virtual panel discussion of former guests on the “Asian American Forum\,” a pioneering weekly radio program that aired on public radio in Connecticut from 1990 to 1996. Moderated by Edward Lim\, former Business Librarian at the University of Connecticut. \nThe Asian American Forum (AAF) was created and hosted by Dr. Paul Bock and Mrs. Phoebe Ten Yin Ho Bock\, and was the first Asian American college radio program on the East Coast. The collection represents vital oral history documenting Asian American perspectives primarily from the Northeast corridor\, with additional representation from Washington\, California\, Hawaii\, and other U.S. regions. Later in life\, the Bocks moved to Seattle and donated their collection of AAF episodes originally recorded on audio tape to the Wing Luke Museum.
