Everybodyyyy! Laos in the House! It's just fun to say. Laos in the House is a project to promote storytelling and document history within the Lao-American community through a writing, performing and filmmaking workshop. Working with artists in various genres from across the country, this community-based work will be presented during the Lao New Year celebration in April-May 2015 and reflect 40 years of the Lao-American diaspora.
The focus of Laos in the House will be Lao war refugees whose upbringings did not necessarily prioritize art education, while giving voice to previously unheard stories in hopes of healing the scars of war and beginning the process of regular intercultural and intergenerational exchanges.
