“Going down those stairs is like seeing where you come from.”

Maya designed the exhibition spaces around the courtyard. She left the brick walls bare but added a large skylight overhead. Films about Chinese Americans are projected on windows facing the courtyard. Photographs and other artifacts are presented throughout the museum. Maya’s husband contributed vintage photos, some from his own collection. Also on display are newspapers published in the late nineteenth century with articles about discrimination and the passage of the Chinese Exclusion Act, in 1882, which prevented Chinese laborers from coming to the United States because of their nationality.
