TAAF is ensuring AAPIs are seen in our full humanity on the biggest stages, in classrooms, and through authentic storytelling.

“This is a proud moment for AAPIs everywhere, particularly Korean Americans, as Ji-Young and the See Us Coming Together special demonstrate that Asian Americans are part of the very fabric of American society and culture. At TAAF, we are striving to help create a permanent and irrevocable sense of belonging for AAPIs in this country, and supporting Sesame Workshop’s introduction of the first-ever Asian American Sesame Street Muppet brings us one step closer toward making that vision a reality.” 

"CAPE has long championed the critical importance of creative executives - the greenlighters and story shepherds - in the narrative change movement. With TAAF's support, we're excited to double down on this crucial segment of the entertainment industry by surveying the barriers to career advancement and sustainability and by building bridges for collective success."

"For over 43 years, CAAM's work has been premised on the belief that “representation matters,” and that unless we tell our own stories, they will be told for us. TAAF’s recognition of our work, along with generous funding to support our core work in talent development, production, and exhibition, is greatly appreciated. We will continue to create and champion stories that reflect the richness and diversity of Asian American experiences."

“As an American-born company founded by Chinese immigrants, we recognize the value of corporate engagement in philanthropic activities to make strategic investments in our communities. We are particularly passionate about fostering greater cultural understanding and appreciation through the power of storytelling of AAPI communities through education and the arts. We are proud to support TAAF’s program with the Sundance Institute, as it drives necessary resources toward strengthening and empowering AAPI artists to share their distinct voices and further diversify the American entertainment industry.”
