Community Engagement

 As a way to create multiple entryways to the histories presented in this exhibition, we are partnering with a number of local organizations to collaboratively discuss and interpret with the audiences in Philadelphia vicinity. Below are projects that are being planned. Dates and details will be announced on the Events page as they are confirmed. The Community Engagement programs are led by Rob Buscher and Ann Adachi-Tasch, with the partnering institutions.

Video Letter Exchange Project
Artist Nadia Hironaka (Philadelphia) leads a video letter exchange with three other artists, Shinpei Takeda (San Diego), Hikaru Suzuki (Tokyo), and Yu Araki (Tokyo). In the call and response style, each artist expresses the experience of the local, what grounds them, and their connections to their space and environment.

PhillyCAM Youth Media Workshop
Proposed as a way to introduce to the local youth audience, the early examples of the use of video technology and independent filmmaking for documentation of protests, communication device, and alternative news reporting, we hope to make connections between today’s methods of self-publishing and social media technology to this history.

Twelve Gates Arts Screening
Twelve Gates Arts will present a screening program featuring works of immigrant artists from South Asia region.

Symposium at the University of Pennsylvania
This one-day symposium will include 2-3 panel events, including a panel focusing on CCJ’s core mission work of experimental moving image and preservation (with co-curators Go Hirasawa, Julian Ross, and Ann Adachi-Tasch); and another session to discuss diasporic art making (led by Rob Busher and Nina Horisaki-Christens).

Immigrant Artists Exchange
Partnering with Fleisher Art Memorial, this gathering will bring together immigrant artists of the Philadelphia region for exchange of experiences and learnings.
