A Sense of Belonging: How Do You Say Your Last Name?

MARN and MKE FILM FESTIVAL are pleased to announce, “A Sense of Belonging: How Do You Say Your Last Name?” on Wednesday, Oct. 11 from 6 – 8 PM at the MARN ART + CULTURE HUB.

What does “Asian-American” even mean anyway? We’ve put this and other existential questions of identity to a group of esteemed Asian American artists, including Brooklyn author and illustrator Vanessa Nguyen, whose new coloring book, How Do You Say Your Last Name?, explores the duality of growing up as a first-generation Asian kid in America.

This event is free and open to the public, Donations to Milwaukee Film encouraged.
