See & Do: MOCA Celebrates Community Heroes

The Museum of Chinese in America invites you to its Second Annual Celebration of Community Heroes! Last year, with David Henry Hwang as emcee, MOCA honored the work of OCA-NY and the Chinese American Medical Society.

This year, the dinner takes place Wednesday, April 17. Honorees include May Y. Chen, who serves on the President’s Advisory Commission on Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders, and Rocky Chin, who in 2007 was appointed Director of the Office of Equal Opportunity & Diversity at New York State Division of Human Rights. Families with Children from China of Greater New York and Peter Lau, of Confucius Mannings Pharmacies, will also be honored at the celebration.

Festivities will be held at Golden Unicorn Restaurant, and dinner starts at 7pm, cocktails at 6pm.
