Ricepaper
''Ricepaper'' is the only Canadian literary magazine with a focus on Asian-Canadian arts and culture.〔("Ricepaper Magazine" ) British Columbia Association of Magazine Publishers.〕 Based in Vancouver, British Columbia, it is published quarterly and features articles, literature, poetry, artwork and photography written by or written about writers and artists of primarily Pacific Asian and mixed Asian descent. ==History== ''Ricepaper'' was created in 1995 by Jim Wong-Chu, founder of the Asian Canadian Writers’ Workshop, as a newsletter for its members. Much of the early editorial content explored the marginalized Asian experience in Canada. Over time, the newsletter has grown into a full-fledged magazine which has evolved along with its reader base to provide a forum for creative works, interviews, profiles and reviews of the contemporary Asian-Canadian community. The content of each issue is informed by a "theme". Recent issues have focused on space/culture/place, aesthetics, language and cities. Prominent artists that have been featured include Wayson Choy, Joy Kogawa, Kid Koala,〔("Zine review: Rice Paper" ) Broken Pencil.〕 and Sook-Yin Lee,〔("10 Years of Ricepaper" ) Canadian Magazines.〕 as well as cultural producers and figures such as David Suzuki, Bing Thom and Roy Miki. ''Ricepaper'' also supports emerging artists; those who have worked or written for ''Ricepaper'' magazine have gone on to become notable writers and cultural activists such as Madeleine Thien, Kevin Chong, Craig Takeuchi, Alan Woo and Rita Wong. ''Ricepaper'' is funded by the Canada Council for the Arts and distributed in newsstands across Canada, with large concentrations of readers in major cities such as Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Toronto, Montreal and Halifax. The magazine has strong ties to the Asian-Canadian community and regularly participates in local cultural and literary events including the Gung Haggis Fat Choy dinner and the Powell Street Festival.
