Elvis of Cambodia Film Premiere connects the community with the history of Cambodia’s Golden Era of Music
Thank you to our family, friends and community members for showing up in full force on a Tuesday night for the Elvis of Cambodia film premiere! Over 300 attendees came out to learn about Cambodia’s rich cultural music and the legacy of Sinn Sisamouth who remains to be an icon of Cambodian music today. The Bankhead Theater welcomed community members from all over Northern California who came to see the documentary film and got a chance to get on their feet and dance to the music of Cambodian-American music artist, Jay Chan during his tribute to Sinn Sisamouth as a sendoff!
We are especially appreciative of the Center for Empowering Refugees and Immigrants for arranging a bus to transport 100 elders and youth from the Cambodian-American community in Oakland so that they could be a part of this special event. The arts is a powerful connector that transcends across cultural and generational lines.
