Join us for the Opening Reception for current exhibition The Vietnamese Áo Dài in a Time of War at the Cantor Art Gallery, featuring Vietnamese appetizers and a cash bar.
Vietnamese American actress Kieu Chinh speaks with fashion designer Thai Nguyen about her trajectory as an actress and her work in the public eye on notable projects such as HBO’s miniseries The Sympathizer and the 1993 film The Joy Luck Club. The conversation is followed by a screening of the drama Journey from the Fall (2006), which traces the struggles of one family after the Fall of Saigon in 1975.
