Please join us in welcoming C. Y. Lee, author of Flower Drum Song, in his first visit to the Twin Cities. The Chinese Heritage Foundation has scheduled two events in his honor and invites you all to come and meet him.

The first event is at the opening night performance of Flower Drum Song, presented by Mu Performers, on June 27. We have negotiated a special discount on tickets for you. After the performance please stay to greet Mr. Lee at the reception. You will have an opportunity to purchase his books and obtain his signature.

The second event is on the following evening, Sunday, June 28. In collaboration with China Insight and Chinese American Ballroom Dancing Association and forDanSa, we are presenting a dinner and dance gala in Mr. Lee's honor at Jun Bo Restaurant. Dance to a live band and listen to Mr. Lee reminisce about the genesis of Flower Drum Song. Watch a performance by top Twin Cities dancers and bid, per chance, to dance with Mr. Lee himself!

So please come. Join us in paying tribute to Mr. Lee, a trailblazer and mentor to generations of Chinese artists in this country.

Our Mission

The Chinese Heritage Foundation has been established by members of the local Chinese community in cooperation with The Minneapolis Foundation to preserve and promote the understanding of Chinese history, culture, and heritage among all Minnesotans. The inaugural fund of the Foundation will be an endowed fund, with grants of income restricted to certain funding priorities.

Recognizing that the charitable interests of Chinese families are broad and diverse, individual Donor Advised Funds may also be established as part of the Chinese Heritage Foundation.
