Chow! No. 2 Potluck for Asian Artists + Creatives at Cleveland Foundation – Cleveland, OH

NEOA3 (Northeast Ohio Asian American Arts) invites you to Chow! No. 2! Join us for our ongoing potluck series, started by artist Jordan Wong (WONGFACE), bringing together Asian artists, creative professionals, and supporters of Asian art for good food, conversation, and community. Chow! is one of NEOA3’s signature FREE community-building events!

IMPORTANT DETAILS
• This is a FREE event, but an RSVP is required
• Doors open at 5:30 PM.
• Bring a food item, dessert, or beverage to share at the potluck, if you can!
• Those who love and support Asian art are welcome! You don’t have to be Asian or an artist to join us.

We’re thrilled to partner with the Cleveland Foundation, our gracious hosts for this special edition!

Alongside our communal meal, guests will have the opportunity to explore Plenitude, a community exhibition celebrating food as a source of culture, memory, and belonging.

At the heart of the exhibition is a three-part installation by artist Thao Nguyen, featuring twelve large-scale gradient silkscreen prints inspired by Asian grocery store calendars, hand-stretched paper lanterns rooted in East Asian papermaking traditions, and video interviews with community advisory council members and AsiaTown restaurant owners.

At 7 PM, Thao will lead a special artist talk and exhibition walkthrough!

We’ll also have non-alcoholic mocktails available for purchase from hi raya!, a Filipino-owned Cleveland business by Rhea Doria, crafting signature beverage and dessert syrups.

PARKING
Guests may park along East 66th Street or in the Foundation's surface parking lot beneath the solar canopy at East 66th Street and Chester Avenue.

A big thank you to our community partners, MotivAsians and DesiinCle, in helping support + promote this event!

Come connect, share a meal, and celebrate community!
