Communities at work: Exhibitions and oral histories at the Wing Luke Museum of the Asian Pacific American Experience
The Wing Luke Museum of the Asian Pacific American Experience
has become a national model for community-based exhibition processes and oral history gathering projects. In 1995, the Museum received the Institute for Museum and LibraryServices (IMLS) National Award for Museum Service on the strength of its cutting edge work in fostering broad-based participation in the development of exhibitions and programs.

With each exhibition, The Wing brings many community members into the development process, and integrates oral history gathering and a range of multimedia techniques into its displays.

Would you like to help?
The Museum relies on volunteers for each project to assist with oral history gathering and transcription, research, community outreach and exhibition installation.
Call (206) 623-5124 ext. 131 for upcoming volunteer opportunities.
