ABOUT THE FILM SERIES
SBTHP’s Asian American History Committee is dedicated to exploring the Nihonmachi and Chinatown that emerged out of the ruins of the Santa Barbara’s Spanish period fort in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Each July over three Friday evenings, we host three public screenings of films that speak to the Asian American experience in the western US. Film selections address a broad range of historical and modern topics, such as the internment of Japanese Americans during WWII, Chinese American adoptions, and the contributions of key Asian American figures. This film series is made possible by the generous support of the George H. Griffiths and Olive J. Griffiths Charitable Foundation.

2017 Asian American Film Series:
July 7: Off the Menu: Asian America
July 14: Comfort
July 21: My Life in China
July 28 – special fourth screening: Santa Barbara premiere of George Takei’s Allegiance
