Artists say they want to use their work to bring people of different backgrounds together.
"All the audiences, I really want them to enjoy my concert, yea I want to sing for all of them." said singer Annie Chen
"The kind of programming that we do here at Flushing Town Hall, is not only giving people an opportunity to maybe be reminded about something wonderful of their own cultural heritage, but also to give people a chance to discover something new." said Executive and Artistic Director, Ellen Kodadek
