Sometimes topics such as gender identity and queer visibility are hard to bring up in Taiwanese and Asian diaspora communities. TAIWANfest invites everyone into the conversation with free, inclusive programming.
Taiwanese indie band P!SCO brings a high-energy performance where the LGBTQ+ community and allies can dance freely together. Come and draw a Taiwanese fortune, and help us bridge the gap between generations with words!
Celebrated queer novelist Nathalie Chang (Chang Yi-Hsum) presents a lecture on the intersections of culture, gender, and power through literature from East Asia. Researcher at the National Museum of Prehistory Sung-En Lin will share her experience collaborating with Indigenous communities in Taiwan, including the transformative role of women. Immigrants, newcomers, and 1.5+ gen diaspora community members are encouraged to join the discussion.
