With support from the California Arts Council, VISUAL COMMUNICATIONS MEDIA will use the approved grant for the 35th annual Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival, which is the only festival of its kind, scope, and caliber, in Los Angeles that celebrates Asian Pacific American (APA) and global Asian filmmakers. The Festival reaches and engages over 30,000 individuals in attendance at its specially presented screenings, educational seminars, artist talks, and other events.
Visual Communications’ programs includes: the annual Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival and year‐round screenings and exhibitions; the Armed With a Camera Fellowship for Emerging Media Artists; the Digital Histories media production and storytelling program for older adults. We are home to the VC Archives, one of the largest photographic and moving image collections on Asian Pacific experiences in America.
