Join us for an afternoon of conversation and reflection with playwright and screenwriter Eugenie Chan. Get the inside scoop on the making of her film The Truer History of the Chan family, watch some sneak-peek clips, and take away inspiring prompts for exercises you can use in your own creative practice! Eugenie combines myth, family lore, imagined histories (as well as tales told by fellow Asians), and humor to tell stories that capture the epic sweep of Chinese Americans in the American West.
