Celebrating Our HeART-Filled Heritage: Celebrating the Zither—Asian American Identity and Cultural Survival

Celebrating the Zither: Asian American Identity and Cultural Survival invites audiences into a powerful musical journey with accomplished musicians Shirley Muramoto and Winnie Wong, where tradition becomes resilience and heritage becomes liberation. Through the luminous sounds of the koto and guzheng, this program explores how cultural access is not just preservation—but survival—especially in the wake of histories like Japanese American incarceration and the ongoing shaping of Asian American identity. This event is free to attend with registration at oacc.cc/event/asian-zither.
