CAPE Celebrates 35 Years

For 35 years, CAPE has paved the way for advancing Asian and Pacific Islander representation in film, television, and media. What began as a grassroots movement to challenge invisibility has evolved into a nationally recognized organization building sustainable pathways for storytellers, executives, and creatives to thrive in the industry.

CAPE’s 35th anniversary arrives on the cusp of rapid industry transformation. As new technologies and shifting global priorities upend the entertainment industry year after year, CAPE remains committed to expanding opportunity, strengthening pathways to leadership, and building an equitable future where authentic API stories can take center stage.
