SUMMARY:Our Journey Continues: 100 Years After the Chinese Immigration Act
DESCRIPTION:On June 29th\, the Chinatown Storytelling Centre will open “Our Journey Continues: 100 Years After the Chinese Immigration Act”\, a new special exhibit dedicated to honouring the multigenerational families who pursued their dreams and turned grievances into success. \nThe exhibit shares the lesser-known stories of families with ancestors who lived through the period of exclusion (1923-1947) and the living descendants making their mark in diverse professions. In selecting the stories\, the CSC spotlights ordinary people who are making an important impact in our community today\, including teachers\, doctors\, athletes\, artists\, and community organizers. The majority of the families have a connection to Vancouver’s Chinatown\, the vibrant intersection point of their extraordinary stories reflecting diverse occupations and backgrounds.

SUMMARY:Peace Country
DESCRIPTION:The Firehall is pleased to launch its 2023-2024 season with the world premiere of Pedro Chamale’s Peace Country from Thursday\, October 12 to Sunday\, October 22\, 2023. \nPeace Country is inspired by playwright Pedro Chamale’s upbringing in Chetwynd\, B.C. This new work by Chamale is an examination of intercultural friendship\, the realities of northern living\, and the vilification of northern communities in the fight against the climate crisis. \nSet in a small rural town in British Columbia’s Northern Interior\, a new political party has swept into office with the promise of big changes – changes that could put the nail in the coffin of a little carbon-economy town\, that is\, if climate change doesn’t wipe it out first. In a time where it feels easy to spit rhetoric at one another\, a familiar face in the party forces childhood friends to have tough conversations and work together for a change. Through Peace Country\, we see a plea for dialogue around climate action in a time of great division. \n“This play is a way for me to put both sides of my heart\, the urban and rural\, on stage in direct conflict with each other\, with humour and humility for a greater cause\,” says Chamale. \nDonna Spencer\, The Firehall’s Artistic Producer\, adds\, “It gives me great joy to bring Peace Country to the stage as the season opener with our partners rice & beans theatre. It is entertaining\, relevant to what Canadians are facing today\, and delivered in a heartfelt and honest manner.”

SUMMARY:Jade Music Fest 2023
DESCRIPTION:The second annual Jade Music Fest returns this October 18-20\, taking place in both Vancouver and Richmond. This year\, the artist lineup includes international artists from the USA\, Australia\, and Taiwan\, and of course talents from all across Canada! \nDespite the prominent and growing Chinese-speaking communities in Canada\, we rarely hear Chinese-language music in mainstream media. For musicians who write in multiple languages or want to reconnect with their heritage\, many are forced to go to Asia in search of their own stage. Jade Music Fest is a platform for industry professionals\, emerging artists\, and music lovers to share experiences\, create supportive networks\, and shine in the spotlight. \n16 artists\, 4 performance showcases\, 3 artist talks\, 3 workshops\, and 2 panels. Join JMF in making Vancouver into North America’s hub for Chinese-language music! \nHighlights include: \nTime to Play For the Lost Time: Van Lefan & Jason Qiu\nA cross-generational music presentation with Taiwanese-Canadian Van Lefan and Vancouver-based Jason Qiu who is of Cantonese background. Drawing inspiration from the golden classics of their parents’ generation\, how do these memories and the immigrant experience influence their own creative works today? \nOpening Concert: Strike the Chord featuring Xiao Bing Chih\nA medley of different genres\, a taste of the unlimited potential of Chinese-language music. Folk musician Daniel Lew sings with the strength he carries from overcoming the challenge of losing hearing in one ear; Chinese-Canadian Scope G invites his friends to share the vitality of experimenting with hip-hop; Juno award-winning Jacqueline Teh uses the warmth in her voice to heal others; and Taiwanese music artist Xiao Bing Chih shares his journey of personal growth with every song. \nJMF Showcase: Rise Up\nTelling stories through music. World-travelled Tennyson King reconnects with his roots using Mandarin and Cantonese; Taiwanese-Australian musician Kim Yang sings with the courage of a female Asian immigrant; flautist Mirabelle Jien of Calgary is reaching all corners of the world with her creativity; embracing her multifaceted identities is Darling Sparrows and her evolving folk songs; Cantopop band Dawn of Freedom protects the Hong Kong they call home through music. \nJMF Showcase: Feel the Beat\nJazz songstress Kristin Fung brings her band to soothe a week’s worth of stress; Asian-American singer-songwriter Lowhi’s heartwarming voice offers us a reprieve for the weekend; Toronto-based Aiko Tomi boldly expresses herself through music and invites us to dance along; Amis Indigenous-Canadian Kapa Arkieh and Hong Kong-born handwash share their complex immigrant identity\, showcasing the diverse landscape of Chinese-language music. \nLearn more at jmfa.ca.
