Fun Asian groups in LA?

November 11, 2009 6:25 PM

Any good, fun Asian groups in Los Angeles?

I am part of a lot of groups in LA, but strangely know very few Asians. I'd like to start hanging out with more of them, get back in touch with my cultural side, and all that.

I'm Chinese, but any type is fine. Prefer if they have mostly young people (under 30). Also the closer to the West side the better.

Any group ideas are welcome - dance, community service, social, professional, etc.

Thanks. =)

If you're at all spiritually inclined, there are many, many, many, many Asian/Asian-American churches and temples all over LA. Maybe you can check some out, even if you only want to go to meet people, and not for the religious aspects - they wouldn't necessarily throw you out because of that.

Have you tried searching for groups on Facebook? (bonus points if you're not on Facebook)

There are some Chinese Lion Dance groups here in NYC. I bet there would be some if not a lot on the West Coast.
