MOCA Queer StoryJAM #6 - Icon

Join the Museum of Chinese in America (MOCA) for the sixth installment of Queer StoryJAM, a dynamic and intimate storytelling event celebrating queer voices, identities, and experiences within the Asian American community. This edition, titled 'Icon,' explores what it means to embody, challenge, and redefine iconic figures and moments through personal narratives and creative expression. Queer StoryJAM #6 brings together storytellers, performers, and community members for an evening of raw authenticity and artistic celebration. Participants will share compelling personal stories, poetry, music, and multimedia performances that examine iconography, identity, legacy, and representation. Whether drawing inspiration from historical figures, pop culture, or personal heroes, featured storytellers will illuminate the diverse ways queer Asian Americans navigate, honor, and transform iconic imagery. This event is more than just a performance—it's a community gathering space where marginalized voices are centered and celebrated. The intimate atmosphere encourages genuine connection and dialogue, fostering a sense of belonging among LGBTQ+ individuals and allies interested in Asian American culture and history. MOCA's commitment to amplifying underrepresented narratives makes this the perfect venue for Queer StoryJAM. Located in the heart of Chinatown, the museum serves as a cultural hub dedicated to preserving and promoting Chinese American experiences. By hosting this series, MOCA acknowledges the rich intersection of queer and Asian American identities that have historically been overlooked in mainstream discourse. Whether you're a seasoned storyteller, a first-time attendee, or simply seeking community with like-minded individuals, Queer StoryJAM #6 offers an unforgettable evening of inspiration, laughter, vulnerability, and connection. Come ready to listen, celebrate, and perhaps even share your own story. This is a free and accessible community event. All are welcome
