Welcome to our new Board Directors!

March 11, 2025

Arts East-West welcomes two exceptional new board directors: Alice II Shin and CHOI Dong-hwan.

Alice II Shin is a Korean filmmaker trained at Nihon University, Japan, who works as a director, producer, and editor across Japan, Korea, and Canada. Her Asian-Canadian experiences inform her work, with her documentary Landscapes of Home (2024) selected for ACAT 2025, Korea.

Choi Dong-hwan brings distinguished expertise in international diplomacy as Chairman of Africa Insight in Korea, former Consul General to Montreal, and Permanent Representative to the ICAO Council. His previous ambassadorship to Senegal demonstrates his commitment to cross-cultural engagement.

AEW's board grows to 7 directors: Marie Boti, Livia Monnet, Vincent Toi, Jacques Desbiens and Mi-Jeong Lee.

Together, our diverse board will continue advocating multicultural voices in arts and media. Thank you for being on the Board of Directors for Arts East-West!
