Where to Eat, Stay, and Play in SoCal
China à la carte, LACO’s final à la carte fundraiser of the season, is graciously hosted by the USC Pacific Asia Museum at the museum, housed in a Chinese Qing dynasty-inspired Pasadena mansion. The only university museum in the United States dedicated exclusively to the arts and culture of Asia and the Pacific Islands, it has a collection of more than 15,000 items spanning more than 5,000 years. The China-inspired evening features a moving musical program of strings led by LACO violin duo Carrie Kennedy and Joel Pargman and a feast of distinctive Chinese cuisine.
