The shine for Park marks a bit of a homecoming. The veteran performer, whose credits include Fresh Off the Boat, franchises like Aquaman and Ant-Man and the Wasp, Veep, WandaVision, and the recent Audacity, was previously honored by CAPE with a new writers award in 2011. He also counts as an alumnus of CAPE\u2019s programs along with other Hollywood talent like  filmmakers Alice Wu, Beth de Ara\u00fajo and Liz Sargent.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\t\u201cFor this 35th anniversary, it\u2019s our time to share our CAPE history, and many of those we are featuring and honoring  \u2014 Randall Park, Manny Jacinto, Asif Ali and Grace Dumdaw, the lead singer of Chanpan \u2014 all have their part in our history outside their own incredible feats in their careers,\u201d said CAPE CEO and executive director Michelle K. Sugihara, who started her tenure when the org toasted its 25th anniversary. \u201cI\u2019m excited to celebrate both CAPE\u2019s 35 years and over a decade of uplifting our community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tMore information about the event including ticket intel can be found <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.capeusa.org\/gala\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.
