Dear <<First Name>>,
We have exciting news! As we mentioned in the newsletter, the Asia Studies Center and the Film and Media Studies Program are starting a whole new project! Introducing SCREENSHOT: ASIA, Pittsburgh’s new Asian Film and Media Programming Series and Film Festival! Through this project, we hope to help Pittsburghers engage in shared experiences and learn each other’s histories.
 

SHARING ASIAN EXPERIENCES WITH THE COMMUNITY
The festival, which is set to premiere in September 2020, will continue the city’s tradition of bringing Asian arts, stories, and experiences to Southwestern Pennsylvania. With the festival and its corresponding year-round programming, we hope to expand Pittsburgh’s arts programming for students, long-time residents, people new to the area, and all of the diverse Asian communities from the region. We are also expanding our offerings beyond the festival, highlighting an array of screened artworks, including video and interactive theater.
 

CONNECTING WITH SOUTHWESTERN PA
The Asian population is the fastest-growing demographic in Pittsburgh, and this growth is expected to continue over the next 10 years. We hope to build upon our role as a cultural hub, reaching out to both new arrivals and established communities within our region.

Come visit us now at  https://www.ucis.pitt.edu/asc/events/asianfilmatpitt.
 

HOW YOU CAN HELP
We want the ASC community to be a part of this project! Our events are your events, and you are the people who can help make this happen. You can watch our video (created by Pitt ASC/FS students), learn more about how you can support Asian arts programming, and make a gift by visiting our Engage Pitt site: engage.pitt.edu/screenshotasia. Engage Pitt is unlike other crowdfunding sites in that 100% of your contribution will be given directly to the programming with no processing or credit card fees deducted from your contribution!
 
Whether you are able to give financially or not, we hope that you’ll help us spread the word by sharing our link through e-mail and social media. Our campaign will end on December 3, 2019.
 
On behalf of the Asian Studies Center and Film Studies Program, thank you for your support!
