The Confucius Institute at UAA is sponsoring a Chinese culture week. There's food, movies, and other activities.
This is a heads up for next week. It looks like everything is free. I'll have to check if they have free parking passes for events too.
I'll try to find out more about the movies - there are three short films - the poster they sent me is a little hard to read.

The Confucius Institute is the Chinese version of things like the American Libraries abroad or the German Goethe Institute, used to spread Chinese culture around the world. The Confucius Institutes are connected with universities. There have been some reports that they are part of the Chinese espionage system. Whether that's true or not, these events are available and past events that I've attended were pretty good to excellent.
I'm at LAX waiting for my plane out of the heat and back to decent weather.
