MESSAGE FROM THE ExECUTIVE DIRECTOR

THANK YOU AND WELCOME

Remember the beginning of 2010, before iPads, full body scanners and the Arizona immigration law? My heartfelt gratitude to all of you, our visitors, members and supporters, staff and Board. You made 2010 a year in which the Museum was honored with over a half dozen significant awards. Notably, in 2010 The Wing returned to the White House for the second time in our 44 years. First Lady Michelle Obama personally presented our YouthCAN program for high school students with a presidential award. And after over 400,000 online votes, the public named The Wing The Best Museum, in KING5.com’s The Best of Western Washington contest.

Looking ahead to 2011, on February 3 we usher in the Lunar New Year of the Rabbit (or cat in the Vietnamese zodiac), the birth year of Confucius, Einstein and Michael Jordan, and known as a Year of Luck. We celebrated the opening of our new exhibit Cultural Confluence: Urban People of Asian and Native American Heritages. Community members have desired this exhibit for over a decade, and Community Advisory Committee and participants worked over a year to birth this new and landmark show. And on Saturday, April 9, our Board and volunteers present the Wing Luke Museum’s Annual Dinner Auction,

“Our Youth CAN! Building Hope and Leadership”, marking a Year of Hope and benefitting the continuation of YouthCAN and TeensWAY, our on-site youth programs for middle and high school students. Your support and presence will help us negotiate the challenges of difficult times, and find ways to prevail in 2011. May this be a Year of Hope and Luck for all of you.

I leave you with the eloquent thoughts of Casey Bui, Board of Trustees Co-President, remembering and honoring his mother on her recent passing in December 2010. Our sympathies to the Bui family and appreciation for this remembrance:

Dad passed away 11 years ago and Mom was the matriarch. Her passing has certainly brought many thoughts about heritage, history, legacy... the whole immigrant experience which I have personally experienced becomes all the more real - especially so because the two heads of our experience are now gone. As we, as a family, continue our journey in the immigrant/refugee experience (which doesn’t end with a green card, but is the starting point of a whole new experience that the Museum importantly is telling), it will be interesting to see how that legacy unfolds in our lives (the original immigrants) and our kids (the first wave of American-born byproducts of the immigrant experience).Death can make one contemplative. But it’s been positive to think about how we honor those before us who make sacrifices for the sake of better lives for their families. This experience has reminded me why we do what we do at the Wing.Onward, Casey

-Beth Takekawa, Executive Director

The title, “Cultural Confluence,” conveys the experiences of people who live between two worlds: Asian Pacific American and Native American; tribal and urban; traditional and modern. “Confluence” actually refers geographically to the point where two rivers meet and flow as one. In an interview with staff member Joshua Heim, Lillian Pitt – an artist featured in the exhibition – tells us about the tension and blending of her two worlds.

Joshua Heim: When and where were you born?Lillian Pitt: In 1943, I was born on the reservation of the Confederated Tribes of the Warm Springs, Wasco and Paiute in the small hospital in the town of Warm Springs, Oregon... My paternal Grandfather’s ancestors were from the Oregon side of the Columbia River, and he was a distant cousin of the Kalama family from Hawai‘i. My paternal Grandmother was a River person from the Washington side and was part Welsh...

JH: Where were you raised and what was that experience like?LP: I went to grade school on the Reservation until I was in the 6th grade, then we moved to Madras, 14 miles south of Warm Springs. This move was our parent’s idea so the three of us siblings could learn to blend in with the dominant culture. Our house was a lot nicer with plumbing and electricity but it was very hard on my mother as she was a traditional Indian woman and felt

she did not fit into the white man’s world. She was lonely, and missed her culture and speaking her Native language. We were not taught our Native language because our parents thought it would be better for us to speak proper English. They wanted to protect us from as much harsh treatment as possible.

JH: How did you learn about making art?LP: I did not learn to make things with my hands. In high school, I was involved in sports and at school, I was not in the presence of teachers of my culture. Again, we were busy blending into another culture. I seemed confused a lot in school, and because of the prejudice, I became uninterested in learning so I played hooky a lot. I moved to Portland the day after high school graduation. I had not been made to feel very bright in high school, but I felt smart enough to get away from the small town of Madras. It was hard leaving home but I knew I had to move and find myself. When I began to create art in the 1980s, I went to my elders and began to learn about their works.

JH: How does culture, identity or place (either tribal or urban) influence your work?LP: My inspiration comes from the things created by my ancestors in Columbia River Gorge area over the past 10,000 years. They etched into the rocks images of animals, people and things special to them. One famous image I have been particularly inspired

Can you guess what this is? How and when was it used in everyday life?Hint: think food.

by is the image of Tsaglalal, or She Who Watches who overlooked a village where my great, great grandmother lived... When I sculpt her, I do the best I possibly can to create her as perfect as possible, because I feel I am representing a special image of one who watched over my ancestors. It is my way of honoring the place, the people and my culture.

JH: What aspects about your identity do you want to share with our audiences so that they have a meaningful experience with your work?LP: I would like people to take away an appreciation of my culture, of my ancient ancestors’ skill in creating objects of beauty, and my passion to transform their images into new mediums with reverence. I love when I can speak for my ancestors to the next generations [and] hope they can see the reverence in my work.

Much thanks to Lillian Pitt for sharing her story. Come visit The Wing to see her art and other artists featured in this exhibit.

With each New Year comes the opportunity for a fresh start and a clean slate. It is a time of excitement, celebration, family and friends. One of the most commonly known and widely celebrated is

Chinese New Year, taking place on February 3 in 2011. Like the Vietnamese tradition, Chinese New Year is based on the lunar calendar, which follows the phases of the moon.

GOOD HEALTH

Noodle dishes are always served during birthdays and Chinese New Year because the Chinese believe they symbolize good fortune, prosperity, and longevity. The longer the noodles, the longer (and luckier) your life will be – so don’t cut them! This dish is made with long, flat egg noodles (called e-fu noodles). Studded with three different kinds of mushrooms and chives, the noodles in this dish are not as dry as fried chow mein, but lightly coated with sauce.

Time: 30 minutes

Makes: 4 to 6 servings as part of a multicourse family-style meal.

• Two 9-ounce packages fresh egg noodles or one 8-ounce package dried egg noodles• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided• 1 tablespoon soy sauce• Salt• 3 cloves garlic, minced (1 tablespoon)• 3 Asian shallots, chopped (3 tablespoons)• 8 medium dried black mushrooms, rehydrated (reserve about 1 cup of the soaking liquid) and cut into ¼-inch slices (1 cup)• 4 ounces button mushrooms, trimmed and sliced (1 cup)• 2 ounces enoki mushrooms, trimmed and separated (1 cup)• 3 tablespoons oyster sauce• 5 Chinese chives or skinny green onions, cut into 2 inch lengths• Freshly ground black pepper

Prepare the noodles according to package directions. Tip into a colander over the sink and rinse under cold running water. Place the noodles in a large bowl. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon oil, the soy sauce, and a pinch of salt. Toss and set aside.

Preheat a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat for 1 minute. Swirl in the remaining oil and heat until it becomes runny and starts to shimmer. Stir in the garlic and shallots and cook until fragrant, 30 to 45 seconds.

Toss in the black mushrooms and button mushrooms and cook and stir until the mushrooms are almost cooked, 2 minutes. Add the enoki mushrooms followed by the reserved mushroom liquid. Sprinkle with the oyster sauce and 1 teaspoon salt. Add the chives followed by the noodles.

Stir everything swiftly around the wok until well mixed and heated through (use a spatula in each hand to evenly toss the noodles if necessary).

Season with salt and pepper to taste and toss with a couple more flourishes. Serve hot.

Considered the most significant of the lunar holidays, many Chinese Americans continue to follow and adapt Chinese New Year traditions.

GOOD LUCK

Year of the RabbitThe Rabbit is considered a lucky sign. According to Chinese tradition, the Rabbit brings in a year in which you can catch your breath and calm your nerves after a ferocious Year of the Tiger.

Rabbit years: 1915, 1927, 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011

Famous rabbits: Jet Li, Brad Pitt, Albert Einstein, Tina Turner,

Confucius, Angelina Jolie, Anthony Quinn, and Michael Jordan.Characteristics: Rabbits are sensitive creatures who place great importance on peace and tranquility. The rabbit is also the sign that indicates longevity and fortune. They are quietly determined, talented and wildly ambitious. Rabbits are pleasant people, kind and considerate to the sensitivities of others.

Did you know? In the Vietnamese lunar calendar, it is actually Year of the Cat? It is the only animal that differs from the Chinese animal zodiac.

GOOD FORTUNE

During the New Year, children receive red envelopes – or hong bao – containing money. Giving money is considered lucky for both the giver and the receiver. It is believed that those who give will also invite the flow of money during the entire year. The red color of the envelope symbolizes luck and keeps away evil spirits.

GOOD MOVES

Watch the Lions bring in the New Year with a POW-POW-POW!Saturday, February 5 at 2pm, At The Wing(Please note the revised date and time.)

GOOD TIMES

“Leftovers from New Year’s Eve dinner are deliberate to signify the abundance to be carried forth into the New Year… All utensils and supplies should be clean and unbroken, including dishes. A chip means something is eating into one’s fortune.”–Excerpt from Good Luck Life: The Essential Guide to Chinese American Celebrations and Culture by Rosemary Gong. (HarperResource, 2005).

Packed with practical information, do’s and don’ts and other tips, Good Luck Life will help make sure that your Year of the Rabbit will be filled with celebrations that invite good fortune and are rooted in heritage and culture.

On October 21, The Wing’s high school afterschool program, YouthCAN, received the National Arts and Humanities Youth Program award from the White House. Two students traveled to DC, capturing their experiences, impressions, and excitement in YouthCAN’s blog (http://db.wingluke.org/youthcan/), excerpted below.

DAY 1: Destination Washington DCPosted October 19, 2010

for this week King and I will be your virtual tour guide showing you all the

interesting aspects of Washington DC.

The time spend flying here was epic. It was four hours

from Seattle to Georgia. We then had to transfer and board a different airplane. The best way I could describe the experience would be a mixture of sitting

on a school bus while staring at Google maps. We also make a pit stop and ate a pretty good Philly Cheese Steak sandwich.

The time difference here is about 3 hours so the day went by extremely fast. We rode the Washington DC Metro (the Subway) and then walked to the extravagant Liaison hotel. This hotel is worth an estimated value of $899 per night.

-Joanne Li

DAY 2: Shops and tourist hot spots!Posted October 20, 2010

Today was very fun… Ever since I watched that episode of Arthur when his whole

family went to Washington DC, I wanted to come to see the Lincoln Memorial! It was like the American

god, an icon, a legendary president…. And I got to stand next to him!!!

-Joanne Li

DAY 3:The BIG unveilPosted October 21, 2010

If you haven’t heard, it’s been a great day for YouthCAN.

The big surprise was that we had received the National Arts and Humanities Youth

Programs award from the first Lady, Michelle Obama. I will tell you that the moment that we met her was a moment I will never forget.

The day began with a small breakfast, followed by a bus ride to the White House. When we go there, we had to pass through fOur different security checkpoints, which was spectacular. The ceremony itself was amazing…

After we accepted the award from the first Lady, we proceeded to mingle in with the rest of the crowd. There were MANY celebrities in the crowd, but we were asked NOT to request pictures from them, so unfortunately, no pictures of Sarah Jessica Parker, forest Whitaker, or Edward Norton. However, I was lucky enough to be able to MEET these figures. Josh and I were actually able to receive a short inspirational speech from Yoyo Ma.

-King Lau

This summer, The Wing will present a new exhibit highlighting our collection of 400 photographs from Takano Studio, a Japanese American photo studio founded in 1910 in Seattle’s Japantown or Nihonmachi. Many of the Takano Studio photographs reflect personal stories and history of Seattle’s Japanese American community, especially during the late 1930s. Additional images from the Takano Studio collection can be viewed at http://db.wingluke.org/takano/

To help us identify individuals in the photo, on December 7-8, a group of community members gathered at the Museum for an intensive walk down memory lane. On January 13, the

DESTINATION:

Abraham and Shin Quon Goo have been proud Leadership Circle Historymaker supporters of the Wing Luke Museum since 2008. Originally from Honolulu, Hawai’i, they first became involved with

The Wing in 2007, near the end of the Museum’s capital campaign. As we neared our $23 million goal, they were inspired to make their first gift to help Ron Chew, the museum’s former executive director, exceed it.

SUPPORTER SPOTLIGHT: In Our Community

Abraham and Shin Quon Goo

The Goos and their great grandson at their 60th anniversary dinner, July 2010

The Wing’s work of educating younger generations of Asian Pacific Americans (APAs) about their roots and pioneering forefathers is important to the Goos. “The museum does a good job of letting people know about their history and what life was like back then,” says Abe. Through their generous support, they hope to continue and further the Museum’s work. They are especially interested in what has happened to the direct descendants of these early APA pioneers.

A World War II Army Air Corp veteran and retired president of Boeing Advanced Systems, Abe is involved with the American Legion Kent Post 15 and is in his 11th year of commanding its rifle squad, with whom he performs Final Honors ceremonies at Tahoma National Cemetery. He is also

involved with the University of Illinois, his alma mater, and the University of Hawai’i, his wife’s alma mater. Abe is a founding member of the Museum of Flight in Seattle, the National Museum of the United States Army in Washington, D.C. and the World War II Museum in New Orleans.

His awards and honors include the Distinguished Alumnus Award in 1984 from the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Illinois, the Association of Unmanned Vehicles Pioneer Award in 1989 and the Chinese American Engineers and Scientist Association of Southern California (CESASC) Achievement Award in 1989.

The Goos are proud great grandparents and have a one-acre yard filled with fruit trees, a large vegetable garden and flower gardens.

Thank you, Abe and Shin Quon, for your outstanding support and commitment to the Wing Luke Museum and our country!

Cultural Confluence:Urban People of Asian and Native American Heritages

January 14 - September 18, 2011The historic legacies and contemporary lives of people who are both Asian and Native American come together for the first time in this exhibition. Through a mix of contemporary art, new media and story-telling, Cultural Confluence explores what it means to be Native in the city at a time when nearly two thirds of Native Americans live away from their tribal reservations and ancestral homes.

Participating artists and filmmakers: Joy Belmont; Chenoa Egawa; Louie L. Gong; Diana Leung & Kamala Todd; Lucy Ostrander & Don Sellers; Sandy & Yasu Osawa; Lillian Pitt; Lawney Reyes; Rudy Romero; Samuella Samaniego; Sondra Segundo; Preston Singletary; Hanare Tawera Tahuri & Gene Tagaban; Gail Tremblay & Arthur Tulee; Laura Wong Whitebear
