SUMMARY:Tadaima: I'm Home!
DESCRIPTION:After more than 80 years\, a treasured collection returns “home” to Seattle’s Japanese American community. In 1942 dozens of traditional Boys’ and Girls’ Day dolls were entrusted to Bailey Gatzert Elementary School by Japanese American families facing forced incarceration. Most were never reclaimed after the war. Artist Miya Sukune uses recent research in MOHAI’s collection\, as well as portraits Japanese American survivors and their descendants\, to create an installation called “Tadaima\,” meaning “I’m home.” \nTADAIMA: “I’m Home!” Bringing Seattle’s Girls’ and Boys’ Day Dolls Home reconnects the dolls with their traditional role of protecting and blessing children. It invites visitors to celebrate the resilience\, memory\, and enduring traditions of the Japanese American Community.

SUMMARY:Rice on Repeat: An AAPI Circus
DESCRIPTION:Six Asian American Circus artists perform an acrobatic family dinner in Rice on Repeat: An AAPI Circus. \nThere are 3 bowls of rice served throughout our lives: one served to us\, one served to ourselves\, and one served to others. For many\, dinner with family is about connecting and sharing experiences. A bowl of rice is a simple dish that we each flavor to our own tastes. Still\, that bowl of rice is also the foundation of a meal and our cultures. \nAcrobats will set the table\, serve the rice\, and share their life stories through dance and circus arts. It’s an ordinary routine full of extraordinary acts: handstands on the lazy susan\, bowls of rice served from a flying pole\, and a chosen family celebrating their shared experiences through movement. The relatable moment when you forget to set the rice\, is suddenly a game of partner acrobatics as we wait for dinner to be ready. \nCircus arts has its place in theater as a medium for storytelling. Oroki Productions was established to give voices to our artists through this medium that gives us freedom\, community\, and a way to bring representation into performance art spaces. \nThis production was made with support from the Seattle Office of Arts & Culture.
