Back Alleys, Secrets and Stories of Chinatown
Society for Asian Art and Asian Art Museum are separate non-profit organizations with separate memberships. Please use the appropriate registration buttons to register for Society programs.
Step back in time with David Lei, who will share more stories and unknown lore of Chinatown. We will meander through this densely populated and bustling neighborhood on foot, and stop at various intriguing and lesser-known locations.
This is David's third tour of Chinatown for the Society. He knows all the stories, history and culture of this intriguing place. He is a leader in San Francisco’s Chinese American community as well as a longtime supporter of the Asian Art Museum and the Society for Asian Art. He has helped exhibitions and develop documentaries relating to the Chinese American community of San Francisco.
A no-host lunch will follow the tour. Details will be sent to registered participants.
