Film Series | Face of a Nation
October 3, 2019 @ 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm
What Happened to the World’s Fair?
Daughter of immigrants, an idealistic American architect struggles to keep her dream alive as she journeys to discover why America abandoned World’s Fairs.
FACE OF A NATION captures the erosion of the American image as the country loses sight of its vision and values. Probing deeply into national identity, architect Mina Chow investigates the controversy surrounding US participation at World’s Fairs for the last 25 years. The film asks important questions about the country’s role in the world and perceptions of the American image. With our diminished presence at World’s Fairs, have we lost sight of what it means to be American?
AIAWS is bringing Mina Chow to participate in this special event at A/perture Cinema in downtown Winston-Salem.

AIAWS had the first event for our 2024 #ACTIVATE Community project! We're partnering with Crossnore Communities for Children for a Design-Build Project. Together with their staff & the kids, we're designing and building an incentive cart to be used on campus, bringing art supplies, ice cream, hot chocolate, and more to all the kids on campus. ![]()
This event was the design portion, and seeing the kids bring their ideas to life on paper was so exciting! Their imaginations were endless and their creativity was unmatched! We can't wait to come back on campus and build & decorate this cart with them!![]()
Thank you so much to all of our volunteers and our sponsors for helping us make this event possible!![]()
