A popular bi-annual event hosted by the Art Club, Art Café showcases student-submitted art in various forms: paintings, ceramics, drawings, collages, photography, digital art, animation, and more. Venturing beyond merely displaying these works, Fall Art Café 2022 inspired more artistic creativity by encouraging more student interactions with the event. Apart from featuring an art display, Art Café also provided an artist marketplace (a space where artists can sell their work), an open-mic session, a post-it note wall, and a station where anyone can doodle on a big piece of construction paper. At the entrance to this flurry of activity is this event’s theme: Dawn, a reflective departure from the pandemic’s burdens and a hopeful outlook for the future.

Standing in his dorm, Alamo, Daniel Hu (‘23) grins while holding up his American passport. A Shanghai native, Daniel has not been home since August 7th, 2021, which is also the last date he saw his dad and grandparents who live in China. This is due to the zero-Covid policy in China that has barred foreigners from entering China for the past two years without long quarantine requirements. Upon learning about the callback of China’s zero-Covid policy, Daniel booked a ticket back home for spring break, ecstatic to finally be able to use his passport.

Candles, flowers, and masks drenched in red paint were placed at the vigil in front of the Chinese Consulate General in Los Angeles on November 27th, 2022. An old propaganda from the Cultural Revolution saying “smash the old world, build the new world” (打碎旧世界，创立新世界) was reclaimed as a statement against the government. These objects symbolized resistance against zero covid policies and the violence brought by the CCP.
