The Filipino American Oral History Project explores different personal stories of the diaspora in the Greater Newark region and New York City.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This oral history initiative was developed in collaboration with the Newark Museum of Art and the Clement A. Price Institute on Ethnicity, Culture, and the Modern Experience at Rutgers University-Newark and was catalyzed by the important survey exhibition of the artist Carlos Villa at the museum.<\/p>\n

The Newark Museum of Art presents Carlos Villa: Worlds In Collision <\/i><\/a>\u00a0<\/i>from February 10 \u2013 May 8, 2022, organized by The Asian Art Museum of San Francisco and the San Francisco Art Institute and features Villa\u2019s unique, large-scale, mixed media paintings and cloaks along with his photography, body casts, and body paintings. A central figure in the San Francisco art community, Villa was an important leader in the multicultural activism of the 1960s and beyond.<\/p>\n

The oral history project highlights the voices and the important impact of Filipino Americans in the Greater Newark and New York City area and their experiences as being a part of the diaspora in the region.<\/p>\n
