Join fellow MIT alumni and friends for dinner and an evening Columbus Symphony concert on Saturday, May 17. As part of its annual Russian composer festival, the Symphony will perform both the Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto and the Tchaikovsky Symphony No. 6 (“Pathetique”). Maestro Rossen Milanov will conduct, and Aubree Oliverson is the soloist. Discounted tickets with loge seating are just $80 through us for this event.

We will meet for dinner prior to the performance at 5:45 at the Spaghetti Warehouse, 150 S. High St, a short three minute walk from the Ohio Theatre. A Symphony member or senior staff person will brief us about the program, soloist, and composer. Dinner is not included in the price. We will order from the menu, and it is a Dutch treat. (You can join us for dinner if you already have purchased tickets separately; register for the “Dinner only” option or email Dave so we can give the restaurant the correct count.) Paid parking is available at the nearby Statehouse Underground Parking Garage and the Columbus Commons Underground Parking Garage.

East Meets West, Then and Now: Learning from the Legacies of Transpacific Families

MIT Chinese Alumni Group

Wednesday, May 21, 7:00pm - 8:00pm (America/New_York)

More Info & RSVP

Event Details

Register to participate in a live interactive event with Emma Teng, Professor of Asian Civilizations at MIT.
 
Prof. Teng will share her research on transpacific mixed families and take questions from alumni.
 
In an earlier era of globalization, growing US-China trade, missionary endeavors, transpacific educational exchanges and migration led to the formation of mixed Chinese-Western families, challenging taboos against interracial marriage at the time. Yet, their histories have often been hidden in service to these taboos. What lessons can we learn from the hidden histories of transpacific mixed families and their lived experiences in the US, China and Hong Kong bridging cultural and national differences?
 
Moderator: Humphrey Chen '90, MIT Chinese Alumni Group
 
About the Speaker
 
Emma J. Teng is the T.T. and Wei Fong Chao Professor of Asian Civilizations at MIT. She is the author of Taiwan's Imagined Geography: Chinese Colonial Travel Writing and Pictures, 1683-1895 (2004) and Eurasian: Mixed Identities in the United States, China and Hong Kong, 1842-1943 (2013).
