Who We Are/About Us *

Symbolically housed in one of the oldest and last surviving structures of Los Angeles’ original Chinatown, the 7,200 square foot Chinese American Museum (CAM) embodies a cultural and physical link to the past, as well as a promising point of entry for the city’s multicultural future. Opened on December 18, 2003 after 20 years of dedicated community and civic leadership and support, CAM’s presence at El Pueblo de Los Angeles Historical Monument—a 44-acre public park honored as Los Angeles’ “birthplace” and the site of its original Chinatown—reflects the vibrant development of an immigrant history that began over 170 years ago when the first major Chinese settlement was documented in Los Angeles. CAM is dedicated to researching, preserving, and sharing the experiences and contributions of Chinese Americans in the United States through quality exhibitions, programs, and events. In addition to its role in the community as an active-learning institution, CAM is also proud to serve as a visual symbol of new and emerging traditions.

How You Help

Volunteers play an integral part in the development of the Chinese American Museum (CAM). By donating your time, services, and creativity to various projects, activities, and events, you actively contribute to the overall growth and success of CAM and its mission. CAM offers a wide assortment of volunteer opportunities year-round, including: exhibit preparation and de-installation; event planning and preparations; public outreach; translation and transcribing services; gallery sitting; and much more! Our ever-growing CAMmunity of volunteers are comprised of dedicated, spirited individuals of diverse age groups, professions, and experiences who want to contribute to the enrichment of their community and self through service-based philanthropy.

CAM’s humble beginnings started simply with a group of volunteers guided by a collective vision to cultivate public awareness, understanding, and appreciation for the more than 150 years of Chinese American history in the United States and the greater Los Angeles area. As we now march onward to museum expansion, we will continue to rely on the generosity and commitment of present and future volunteers to carry us into the next exciting chapter of CAM’s history. Help grow CAM’s future by becoming a volunteer!
