Where is Denver’s Chinatown? Stories Remembered, Reclaimed, Reimagined

Event Details

Event Details
Created in collaboration with Colorado Asian Pacific United (CAPU) and the University of Colorado Denver’s College of Architecture and Planning, Where is Denver’s Chinatown? Stories Remembered, Reclaimed, Reimagined takes visitors into one of the largest Chinatowns in the American West during the late 1800s and early 1900s. Using personal family photographs and objects, artifacts from History Colorado’s Collection, a portrayal of a typical home, and artistic reimaginings of the neighborhood, Where is Denver’s Chinatown? shares stories from the thriving community that called the neighborhood home.
Once located in the area known today as Lower Downtown (LoDo), Denver’s Chinatown provided a welcoming space for Chinese people in Colorado, who built a flourishing community. The neighborhood represented the earliest Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) community in Denver and provided a space where Chinese immigrants could celebrate their culture against a backdrop of frequent ignorance, hostility, and violence.
The neighborhood persisted through the Anti-Chinese Riot of 1880 but eventually dispersed as a result of widespread anti-Chinese racism and the passage of national laws that restricted immigration and opportunities for Chinese nationals. In addition to looking at the history of the neighborhood Where is Denver’s Chinatown? Stories Remembered, Reclaimed, Reimagined also explores contemporary efforts by Colorado’s AANHPI communities to preserve and reclaim this history, and presents visions for its potential future as a cultural district.
October 9, 2024, 5:30 – 8 p.m.
Photo/Video opportunities of History Colorado Center’s newest exhibition and opening celebration featuring the performance of a traditional Chinese Lion Dance from 6 – 6:15 p.m. as well as interview opportunities with History Colorado staff, community collaborators, and guests are available.
