      We're a company who produces art that both highlights and celebrates Asian joy. The mission of Celebrate Asian Joy is to inspire the AAPI community to walk tall, to proudly and boldly claim our joy. In response to the most recent social events involving the AAPI community, we want to empower our community to not succumb to the scariness and anger which diminishes our humanity. We are committed to supporting and celebrating AAPI theatre artists, filmmakers, and musicians, to tell their stories through the arts. CAJ Outreach Program: We're partnering up with NYC schools' Diversity and Inclusion departments to encourage and inspire younger generations of AAPI students. We bring in AAPI Broadway professionals to schools as guest speakers to share their expertise and their stories. Show less
