Community Announcement & Upcoming Special Cambodian Events
CAGP is beyond honored to announce Lok Kru Sochietah Ung as our new Cambodian Performance Arts and Costume Design Master Teacher as part of our October 2026 to May 2027 Cambodian Cultural Immersion Program.
One of the United Stateβs leading cultural preservers, Lok Kru Sochietah brings a lifetime of mastery to our Philly community. Trained by legendary masters from both Cambodia and the U.S., he is a rare expert in all three major Cambodian classical dance roles (giant, male, and female) as well as traditional folk dance.
His dedication to Khmer arts has taken him from crafting royal crowns for Princess Bopha Devi to designing for Broadwayβs The King and I, and performing on stages like the Kennedy Center and the Smithsonian. Recently, Lok Kru was named 2024 National Endowment for the Arts: National Heritage Fellow.
CAGP would also like to announce some upcoming Cultural Immersion Program workshops & classes in this post. Interested in updates for our classes or workshops, please connect through the QR Code image at the end of this post or email [email protected] or text/voicemail 267.596.5804
