CAAMFest 2016 - Opening Night

SEE EVENT DETAILS
CAAMFest opens with an unforgettable cinematic experience, the Bay Area premiere of TYRUS, directed by Pamela Tom. TYRUS is an inspirational documentary about the art, life, and enduring impact of 105 year-old pioneering Chinese American artist Tyrus Wong, best known for the conceptual artwork that gave Walt Disney’s Bambi its distinctive and unforgettable look. TYRUS will be shown at the majestic Castro Theatre, and is part of a special spotlight series in partnership with Pixar and the Walt Disney Family Museum that highlights Asian Americans in animation. The film is funded in part by CAAM, with support from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. The film won the Audience Award at the Hawaii International Film Festival and at San Diego Asian Film Festival.

Immediately after the screening, let inspiration lead you to the incomparable Asian Art Museum for the Opening Night Gala.
