Contemporary Asian Theater Scene (CATS), has been a mainstay in the cultural fabric of Silicon Valley since 1985. CATS serves the Silicon Valley communities to showcase AAPI artists in theater, film, music, visual art & cultural arts programs to the growing Asian American community.Started by three visionaries who realized that Asian American artists needed a voice, CATS was created with the mission of supporting, mentoring and presenting Asian American artists and cultural disciplines in Santa Clara County.
