The Wing Luke Museum of the Asian Pacific American Experience is dedicated to immersing people in uniquely-American stories of survival, success, struggle, conflict, compassion, and hope. The Museum is in the heart of Seattle’s vibrant Chinatown-International District, and includes the very hotel where countless immigrants first found a home, a meal, and refuge.

As the nation’s only museum devoted to the Asian Pacific American experience, it is one of the few places that can truly provide a new perspective on what it means to be American. It has redefined the role of museums by pioneering a model of community-based service that embraces the stories of immigrant populations that have enriched and strengthened the American experience. The Wing is a Smithsonian Affiliate, a partnership with the Smithsonian Institution.
