Gateway to Asia: Your passport across the globe!

We’re now accepting applications for 2013 Gateway To Asia stages! Click here to fill out and submit the form.

CDBF created Gateway to Asia to educate not only the general public, but also Asians about our own diverse and thriving local communities. Gateway to Asia features more intimate performances than the Main Stage, allowing audience members to get up close and personal with performers.

Gateway to Asia also features exhibits that focus on specific Asian Pacific communities. Representatives from different communities will introduce you to their cultures and histories as well as explain to you what the arts and artifacts on display mean.

We’ve introduced visitors to the Filipino, Hmong, Indian, Indonesian, Korean, Japanese, Taiwanese, Mainland Chinese communities and more — it’s like a passport to Asia and the Pacific without ever leaving Denver! In addition, the Gateway stage showcases traditional performances from the Denver area’s many diverse Asian communities to martial arts and hip-hop dance.

For 2013, Gateway To Asia will shine the spotlight on Thailand! We’re also bringing back the all-Martial Arts Stage in Gateway to Asia this year.
