ADMISSION:
Admission is free. RSVP beginning Wednesday, October 1, at 10 a.m.
DESCRIPTION:
Join us at the USC Pacific Asia Museum for an evening of storytelling, cultural reflection, and fashion celebrating the complexities of Filipinx American identity. In a conversation moderated by Eleanor Lipat-Chesler of the Ube Arte collective, fashion designers Marybelle Bustos and Lydia Querian will explore the challenges of cultural preservation and the power of fashion as a form of storytelling and, at times, resistance.
Following the discussion, a fashion show of traditional and contemporary attire featuring Bustos and Querian’s brands, Bárû Mu and Elle Karayan, will highlight cultural roots and evolving expressions of Pinoy diasporic identity.
Program Schedule:
6 p.m.: Conversation
7:30 p.m.: Fashion Show
8 p.m.: Refreshments and Music
Presented by USC Visions and Voices. Organized by the USC Pacific Asia Museum.
