Celebrate Asian American Voices

Resonance: From Archive to Art is part of AAACI’s broader mission to transform archival research and oral history into exhibitions, films, and public programs that bring Asian American history into wider public awareness.


Through partnerships with libraries, universities, and cultural institutions, AAACI works to ensure that these histories remain accessible to communities across generations.

Support Our Cultural Heritage

Programs like Resonance are made possible through community support.

Your contribution helps AAACI continue:


• Recording oral histories from community elders
• Preserving and digitizing historical archives
• Creating films and visual storytelling projects
• Presenting free public programs nationwide


Together, we can ensure these stories remain visible for future generations.

Many of the voices documented through AAACI's work are being recorded for the first time.
