Shing Yin Khor - Creators in Residence

Announcing Shing Yin Khor as one of two 2023/2024 Los Angeles Public Library Creators in Residence.
Shing Yin Khor, inspired by the LAPL’s Map and Photograph collections, envisions a series of large-scale, hand-painted maps documenting historical and personal narratives from L.A.’s queer and immigrant diaspora communities.
The library, in partnership with the Library Foundation of Los Angeles, has established a residency program, Los Angeles Public Library Creators in Residence, designed to engage creative Angelenos from a multitude of disciplines. The program supports local interdisciplinary creators and inspires new work informed or enhanced by the Los Angeles Public Library’s collections and services, while also highlighting the impact of the library as a creative haven.

This is super inspiring and the varieties of mediums you use. We are reading your Auntie Po book now in my high school English class (juniors and seniors mixed). Thank you.
