Lao Heritage Foundation 5th Year Fundraiser | September 19, 2009 | Alexandria, VA
Notes: The LHF preserves and promotes Lao culture through visual arts, dance, and music. In addition to connecting with people I’d only “passed by” online, it was nice just being around a good selection of creative Lao folk. Master Khaen player Bounseung Synanonh was there, along with Thavisouk Prasavath, Laotian filmmaker, Nor Sanavongsay, multimedia artist, Alex San Dinero, Lao Raggaeton artist, a young painter named Sompaseuth Chounlamany, Miss Asian America Amy Chanthaphavong, and oh yeah, I was there too. 😎
