I love how Chinese Culture Center has elevated the community and amplified voices of underserved! 

Founded in 1965 the CCC elevates underserved communities and gives voice to equality through contemporary art and education.

Chinese Culture Center of San Francisco (CCC) is a longstanding community arts organization serving San Francisco's Chinatown. Our community relationships have roots in shared struggle and resilience, founded by Chinese Americans during the Civil Rights movement to rectify racist pasts and to actively shape Chinatown’s future as its first cultural center. Our community, SF Chinatown and underserved local artists, face systemic inequalities and invisibility, which are threatened by poverty, gentrification, language barriers, historical exclusion, and a lack of cultural resources. Today, CCC builds community stability, uplifts voice, and visibility through innovative arts programming and advocacy. CCC’s approach to equitable change is through arts programming and advocacy that elevate community stories (exhibitions and walking tours), incubate local artists (artist-in-residence), and forge cross-racial and cross-sectoral collaborations (community art projects), believing in local impact, with broader regional and international impact.  

Annually, we provide a platform for over 50 artists through exhibitions, festivals, and artist residencies, educate 2,000 underserved students through social justice tours and in-school programming, engage 50,000 diverse audience members to experience art and build skills, and advocate alongside partners to achieve community-wide change. We empower low-income artists and underserved community members with the voice and tools to champion for their community, to foster a sense of belonging and safe place and enable a healthy cultural life. CCC's advocacy has attracted investments and inspired local leaders on artistic strategies for social change. Our passionate team composed of women-led, bilingual, immigrant, queer, and working-class individuals, intimately understands the community's challenges, ensuring our stories are shared on our own terms.
