Kicking off with a dynamic performance of a traditional lion dance by local students of the East Wind Foundation\, the event continues with an exhibition walk-through led by Metro Art. Join exhibition partners\, Huntington-USC Institute of California and the West\, the Chinese Historical Society of Southern California and several descendants of the families connected to the exhibition to hear personal stories and insights. \nEast Wind Foundation is based in the heart of the Los Angeles Chinatown community. Established in 1972 by Sifu Ron Quan\, East Wind’s focus on working towards creating opportunities and making positive impacts on at-risk youths has made them a leader in the global community of not-for-profit institutions. This long-standing tradition has instilled confidence and self-esteem in every person invested with the organization. East Wind has grown since its modest beginnings and seeks to continue its success in three key areas: Performing Arts\, Education\, and Community.

This once vibrant community of families\, businesses\, and associations with roots going back to the middle of the 19th century was a place where residents persisted\, grew rapidly\, and thrived.  Where You Stand: Chinatown 1880 to 1939 invites participants into the center of the vibrant community through a multi-dimensional experience. Installed in the Union Station Waiting Room Gallery\, view the exhibits’ historic photographs\, listen to oral history recordings\, and use augmented reality to see artifact materials superimposed within locations around Union Station. Audiences can explore the site’s historic layers\, formerly a collection of alleyways\, streets\, and buildings\, and home to thousands of Chinese residents in the late 19th to early 20th century Los Angeles. \nThis temporary exhibition is part of a wider collaboration among Metro Art\, The Huntington-USC Institute on California and the West\, the Chinese Historical Society of Southern California\, USC Cinema\, and the Huntington Library that will culminate in an augmented reality (AR) experience and associated project website made possible in part with the support of the National Endowment for the Humanities. \nFor related content please visit our partner websites. \nThe translations and additional elements of the exhibit are accessible using QR codes with your mobile device or by visiting whereyoustand.site \n\n \n \n \n \n Fong See stands in front of F.
