Sponsorship
The world’s largest stage for Asian American entertainers
“ The Kollaboration movement embodies our
message that in order to change the status quo, we
need to step up and create that change ourselves.
We are in the midst of a huge generational culture
shift in the AAPI community. We are expressive,
creative, and writing our own history. ”
Christine Minji Chang, Global Executive Director

HISTORY
Page 4
Founded in 2000 by stand up
comedian Paul “PK” Kim in Koreatown,
Los Angeles. PK created a stage for
Korean American artists to inspire and
promote accurate representations of
Asians in mainstream media.
Over the course of 14 years, the
Kollaboration show spread from LA to
New York, Chicago, and many other
North American cities. Kollaboration
became a pan- Asian American Pacific
Islander movement and official nonprofit organization in 2006.
Kollaboration is the largest and longest
standing platform for Asian American
Pacific Islander artists and entertainers.
We empower generations of AAPIs to
embrace their roots, dream big, and
redefine their representation in media.
We unify, celebrate and
elevate the AAPI voice.
