Acknowledgements

In 2011,  AAWAA was honored with grants from the California Arts Council and National Endowment for the Arts. Additionally, in February, AAWAA held a successful fundraiser for A PLACE, Refresh, headed up by Nancy Hom, Cristal Fiel and Khay Hembrador. All these, including the support of Asian Pacific Islander Cultural Center (APICC), have ensured the stellar production of this exhibition and catalog.
