Due to the ongoing pandemic we’re anticipating major revenue shortages for this year’s festival, but, as they say, the show must go on. If you have the means,please consider donating or sponsoring a ticket to help us make up the difference and provide access to the festival for someone in need.
Join us for the closing reception of APAture 2021. Artist talk and special performance by music showcase artist, Leo Hedge.
Please RSVP with timed entry for opening and closing reception. The number of people in the gallery will be capped, proof of vaccination is required, and visitors must be masked indoors. We will also be streaming to Instagram Live.
Our theme for this year is Embrace. As we continue to social distance and keep each other safe, we are collectively imagining what intimacy and closeness mean. During times of sickness, violence, and injustice, how do we come together in community and in radical care? What do we hold close in our lives and in our art? What do you embrace as you step into your artistic power? Come join the conversation with these emerging Asian Pacific American artists showcasing their work.
There will be a Q&A with filmmakers present and this will be the SF premiere for many of the short films.Showcase Films: ancestors calling collect (dir. champoy), Sad SAC (dir. Odd Folks Film), White Friends (dir. Movie Boy), Mirror (dir. Sara Hayden), Dahil Sa Isang Bulaklak (dir. Kim Requesto)
