Cultural Planning, Community Building, and Neighborhood Stabilization in Chinatown

The Sasaki Foundation’s first in-person event in our new office was a success! We had almost 100 attendees join in person and virtually for our panel discussion on cultural planning, community building, and neighborhood stabilization in Chinatown. We heard from our neighboring local organizations Asian Community Development Corporation, Chinatown Community Land Trust, and Pao Arts Center They reflected on the last 20 years of planning in Chinatown, the importance of the current cultural planning process, and the possibilities for the future of the neighborhood.
