CCC: Advocating for the Arts

Advocacy

CCC proudly hosted the API Council’s Mayoral Town Hall in September, successfully uplifting key issues important to the underserved API community and connecting these needs with the Mayoral candidates. Discussions ranged from food security to housing and addressing cultural funding disparities, emphasizing the community's right to cultural space and providing a platform for these vital conversations. Collaborating with artist Summer Lee, a series of performances showcased Chinatown's unique arts and culture as part of the event.

Hear from all the candidates on NBC Bay Area.
