We'd like to thank our curator Karla Garcia @karla.lachamaca for working with us on this incredible and much needed exhibition. Participating artists: Eva Salazar Israel Esparza Dominguez Guillermo Garcia Christy Gomez Johnny Bear Contreras @johnnybearart Raymundo Marquez @rebelray619 Yinna Lila Muñoz Aldama @yinna_aldama Fox Maxy @foxm4xy Weshoyot Alvitre @weshoyot Juan A. Reynoso @jreynoso25 Jorge Sanchez Derrick Herrera As described by the curator Karla Garcia: The Kumeyaay people have lived on this land since time immemorial. Our story is vast, complex, resilient, and never-ending. We are artists, singers, dancers, filmmakers, organizers, advocates, educators, and keepers of our culture. Our stories have been passed down for more than 60 generations on this land, much has been lost but so much has remained. Beyond what we have kept for over 12,000 years, today we create new stories, grow as a community and instill who we are in the next generation of indigenous youth. Our tribe pre-dates the United States, Mexico, and the U.S./ Mexico border. Yet we are divided by these nations and European-American-made walls. Families have been divided, a tribe cut in half, and our way of life was forever changed. Yet we are still here, on both sides of the border, each person, each family, band, community, and ejido, holds a different piece of our story. Today we will show you some of the pieces that we have in hopes that you may see us and that you may listen.

After touring "Wong Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest" across the country for five years in over 40 live engagements, Kristina Wong’s critically acclaimed one woman show is finally captured in her first ever concert film through the dynamic direction of Michael Closson. An unforgettable tour de force performance. Wong Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest is Kristina Wong’s raucous and whip-smart take on the high rates of depression and suicide among Asian American women. She sets out to single-handedly save them all by the end of her 80-minute film! She fails fantastically, creating hysterical laughter and a sobering coda. It’s one hell of a roller coaster ride! But don’t worry… it’s all fiction. Post-screening Panel Join us for a post-screening panel with Kristina Wong, Windi Sasaki (Associate Director of Asian Pacific Islander Middle Eastern Desi American Programs and Services - APIMEDA), and Dr. Louie Limas (Counseling and Psychological Services - CAPS).
