 lain Sight</em> is the first in a two-part series highlighting the legacy
  of the late curator\, writer\, and cultural activist Karin Higa. This pro
 gram will explore and celebrate the intersections of art\, community and o
 rganizing in Higa’s work. This conversation\, along with a second panel 
 which will be held at the Hammer Museum on November 20\, coincides with th
 e publication of <em>Hidden in Plain Sight: Selected Writings of Karin Hi
 ga</em>\, a substantial illustrated volume surveying her curatorial and sc
 holarly work which will be released in October 2022 by Dancing Foxes Press
 .\n\nAmong her many accomplishments\, Higa was senior curator at JANM from
  1992-2006. Her creative\, intellectual and political commitments to Asian
  American art\, the Japanese American experience\, the Little Tokyo commun
 ity\, and their deft interweaving with broader contexts\, continue to be p
 owerful inspiration for artists\, art historians\, and many other cultural
  workers. \n\nPanelists include <strong>Howie Chen</strong>\, curator an
 d writer who recently edited the book <em>Godzilla: Asian American Arts N
 etwork</em>\; <strong>Bruce Yonemoto</strong>\, an artist who\, along wit

 >\; and <strong>Julie Ault</strong>\, editor of <em>Hidden in Plain Sigh
 t: Selected Writings of Karin Higa</em>. The panel will be introduced by H
 iga’s niece and recent JANM Getty intern\, <strong>Rose Higa</strong>\,

 trong>\, who worked under Karin Higa as a JANM Getty intern.
