CAPE Gala raises $350K with Randall Park and Manny Jacinto
Thirty-five years is a significant milestone, and the entertainment world recently paused to celebrate the powerful progress made by the Coalition of Asian Pacifics in Entertainment (CAPE).
On Saturday night, the celebration brought together a distinguished group of actors, creators, and executives to honor the decades of advocacy that have pushed for greater representation of Asian American and Pacific Islander communities across film, television, and media.
The event took place at Downtown Los Angeles’ Vibiana, providing a vibrant setting for a gathering that underscored the ongoing importance of visibility and inclusion within the industry.
Beyond the recognition, the celebration served as a powerful fundraising opportunity. Attendees worked to support CAPE’s continued mission, successfully raising more than $350,000 to ensure the organization can keep advancing its goals for representation.
The event was presented by Lexus, highlighting the corporate commitment to supporting diverse talent and creative voices.
This milestone celebration is more than just an anniversary; it is a testament to the resilience and determination of the community working to reshape the narratives that define popular culture. CAPE’s ongoing work continues to inspire a movement for equitable and inclusive storytelling in media.
