Festival 2

The 2nd Asian American Festival was held on August 10, 2012, at the Quincy High School Auditorium.

The 2022 yearbook does not name a theme, sponsors, or an attendance figure for this edition.

Program and performers

The chronology records that the festival invited the Guangzhou Little Angel Symphony Orchestra to Boston and New York for exchange performances.

The Organization Overview (English official PDF p. 9; Chinese 亞美節 entry) names the ensemble in full as the Guangzhou Haizhu Children’s Palace Little Angel Symphony Orchestra and states that 102 people visited Boston and New York to perform. The Klysler Yen interview says “more than 100 people.” Both figures are from the yearbook; they are not independently verified here.

Guests and organizers

Hosted by the Association. The same yearbook year notes that on August 6, 2012, the office moved to Boston and the English name was formally changed to Asian American Association of Boston.

Director Robert Wu’s profile says he was invited onto the board at the second festival.
