We invite Chicago to discover the unique local Chinese American history through showcasing and celebrating current Chinese American art, culture, and innovation.
Chicago’s Chinatown is a site of rich historical importance. CAMOC not only invites visitors to discover it, but is a home for Chicagoans to gather, support, and create an expansive and evolving narrative of the Chinese American story.

New Women
The CAMOC Archive Series proudly presents New Women, a special month-long program to celebrate International Women’s Day. This special installation showcases recorded oral histories and printed materials from 18 women in Chicago’s Chinatown, displayed in the museum’s second-floor windows. In collaboration with Music of Asian America Research Center, we have also curated a special playlist, highlighting the diverse sonic landscapes shaped by women’s voices and artistry from the 1930s to the 1960s.
