                  <text>This collection includes two series, the Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies, 1987, and the Southeast Asian Exhibit Photographs, 1988-1989. The first series includes Chigas’ 84-page paper on Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies created in 1987 along with corresponding photographs. The project, funded in part by the Historic Preservation Commission of Lowell, Massachusetts, explores the traditional crafts and religious ceremonies of the Cambodian refugees who settled in the Greater Lowell area in the aftermath of the Cambodian genocide. The second series includes 20 photographs from a Lowell exhibit on Southeast Asians that was coordinated by George Chigas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is accessible on this site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is also accessible on &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/seadauml?and%5B%5D=george+chigas&amp;amp;sin=" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;the Internet Archive&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the collection finding aid for more information, &lt;a href="https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;--------------------&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;SEADA would like to thank the following individuals for their work in making this collection available online: Etsuko Benton, Monita Chea, and Anthony Sampas.&lt;/span&gt;</text>

                  <text>This collection includes two series, the Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies, 1987, and the Southeast Asian Exhibit Photographs, 1988-1989. The first series includes Chigas’ 84-page paper on Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies created in 1987 along with corresponding photographs. The project, funded in part by the Historic Preservation Commission of Lowell, Massachusetts, explores the traditional crafts and religious ceremonies of the Cambodian refugees who settled in the Greater Lowell area in the aftermath of the Cambodian genocide. The second series includes 20 photographs from a Lowell exhibit on Southeast Asians that was coordinated by George Chigas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is accessible on this site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is also accessible on &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/seadauml?and%5B%5D=george+chigas&amp;amp;sin=" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;the Internet Archive&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the collection finding aid for more information, &lt;a href="https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;--------------------&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;SEADA would like to thank the following individuals for their work in making this collection available online: Etsuko Benton, Monita Chea, and Anthony Sampas.&lt;/span&gt;</text>

                  <text>This collection includes two series, the Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies, 1987, and the Southeast Asian Exhibit Photographs, 1988-1989. The first series includes Chigas’ 84-page paper on Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies created in 1987 along with corresponding photographs. The project, funded in part by the Historic Preservation Commission of Lowell, Massachusetts, explores the traditional crafts and religious ceremonies of the Cambodian refugees who settled in the Greater Lowell area in the aftermath of the Cambodian genocide. The second series includes 20 photographs from a Lowell exhibit on Southeast Asians that was coordinated by George Chigas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is accessible on this site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is also accessible on &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/seadauml?and%5B%5D=george+chigas&amp;amp;sin=" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;the Internet Archive&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the collection finding aid for more information, &lt;a href="https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;--------------------&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;SEADA would like to thank the following individuals for their work in making this collection available online: Etsuko Benton, Monita Chea, and Anthony Sampas.&lt;/span&gt;</text>

                  <text>This collection includes two series, the Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies, 1987, and the Southeast Asian Exhibit Photographs, 1988-1989. The first series includes Chigas’ 84-page paper on Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies created in 1987 along with corresponding photographs. The project, funded in part by the Historic Preservation Commission of Lowell, Massachusetts, explores the traditional crafts and religious ceremonies of the Cambodian refugees who settled in the Greater Lowell area in the aftermath of the Cambodian genocide. The second series includes 20 photographs from a Lowell exhibit on Southeast Asians that was coordinated by George Chigas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is accessible on this site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is also accessible on &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/seadauml?and%5B%5D=george+chigas&amp;amp;sin=" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;the Internet Archive&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the collection finding aid for more information, &lt;a href="https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;--------------------&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;SEADA would like to thank the following individuals for their work in making this collection available online: Etsuko Benton, Monita Chea, and Anthony Sampas.&lt;/span&gt;</text>

The second series includes 20 photographs from a Lowell exhibit on Southeast Asians that was coordinated by George Chigas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is accessible on this site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is also accessible on &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/seadauml?and%5B%5D=george+chigas&amp;amp;sin=" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;the Internet Archive&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the collection finding aid for more information, &lt;a href="https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;--------------------&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;SEADA would like to thank the following individuals for their work in making this collection available online: Etsuko Benton, Monita Chea, and Anthony Sampas.&lt;/span&gt;</text>

                  <text>This collection includes two series, the Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies, 1987, and the Southeast Asian Exhibit Photographs, 1988-1989. The first series includes Chigas’ 84-page paper on Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies created in 1987 along with corresponding photographs. The project, funded in part by the Historic Preservation Commission of Lowell, Massachusetts, explores the traditional crafts and religious ceremonies of the Cambodian refugees who settled in the Greater Lowell area in the aftermath of the Cambodian genocide. The second series includes 20 photographs from a Lowell exhibit on Southeast Asians that was coordinated by George Chigas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is accessible on this site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is also accessible on &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/seadauml?and%5B%5D=george+chigas&amp;amp;sin=" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;the Internet Archive&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the collection finding aid for more information, &lt;a href="https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;--------------------&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;SEADA would like to thank the following individuals for their work in making this collection available online: Etsuko Benton, Monita Chea, and Anthony Sampas.&lt;/span&gt;</text>

                  <text>This collection includes two series, the Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies, 1987, and the Southeast Asian Exhibit Photographs, 1988-1989. The first series includes Chigas’ 84-page paper on Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies created in 1987 along with corresponding photographs. The project, funded in part by the Historic Preservation Commission of Lowell, Massachusetts, explores the traditional crafts and religious ceremonies of the Cambodian refugees who settled in the Greater Lowell area in the aftermath of the Cambodian genocide. The second series includes 20 photographs from a Lowell exhibit on Southeast Asians that was coordinated by George Chigas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is accessible on this site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is also accessible on &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/seadauml?and%5B%5D=george+chigas&amp;amp;sin=" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;the Internet Archive&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the collection finding aid for more information, &lt;a href="https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;--------------------&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;SEADA would like to thank the following individuals for their work in making this collection available online: Etsuko Benton, Monita Chea, and Anthony Sampas.&lt;/span&gt;</text>

                <text>Tim Sao uses his forearm to measure the length of the kite's spine. He will mark how long the spine should be with a pencil then cut it with the hacksaw to the correct length in proportion with the Top Wing. The design of the Top Wing, by the way, is a different shape from the one that Soeun made previously which had rounded ends; he considers this shape more beautiful. Once the spine is cut to length Tim will shave the end with a file to fit the Tail Piece that he has notched with a chisel, and finally secure the spine to the notched Tail Piece with two small tacks carefully driven in with a hammer. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kite Making, photograph 4 of 19, from Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the Kite Making group of photographs in order on the Internet Archive, &lt;a href="Tim%20Sao%20uses%20his%20forearm%20to%20measure%20the%20length%20of%20the%20kite's%20spine.%20He%20will%20mark%20how%20long%20the%20spine%20should%20be%20with%20a%20pencil%20then%20cut%20it%20with%20the%20hacksaw%20to%20the%20correct%20length%20in%20proportion%20with%20the%20Top%20Wing.%20The%20design%20of%20the%20Top%20Wing,%20by%20the%20way,%20is%20a%20different%20shape%20from%20the%20one%20that%20Soeun%20made%20previously%20which%20had%20rounded%20ends;%20he%20considers%20this%20shape%20more%20beautiful.%20Once%20the%20spine%20is%20cut%20to%20length%20Tim%20will%20shave%20the%20end%20with%20a%20file%20to%20fit%20the%20Tail%20Piece%20that%20he%20has%20notched%20with%20a%20chisel,%20and%20finally%20secure%20the%20spine%20to%20the%20notched%20Tail%20Piece%20with%20two%20small%20tacks%20carefully%20driven%20in%20with%20a%20hammer.%20%C2%A0Kite%20Making,%20photograph%204%20of%2019,%20from%20Cambodian%20Traditional%20Crafts%20and%20Religious%20Ceremonies.%20View%20the%20Kite%20Making%20group%20of%20photographs%20in%20order%20on%20the%20Internet%20Archive,%20https%3A//archive.org/details/CambodianKiteMaking." target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://archive.org/details/CambodianKiteMaking&lt;/a&gt;.</text>

                  <text>This collection includes two series, the Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies, 1987, and the Southeast Asian Exhibit Photographs, 1988-1989. The first series includes Chigas’ 84-page paper on Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies created in 1987 along with corresponding photographs. The project, funded in part by the Historic Preservation Commission of Lowell, Massachusetts, explores the traditional crafts and religious ceremonies of the Cambodian refugees who settled in the Greater Lowell area in the aftermath of the Cambodian genocide. The second series includes 20 photographs from a Lowell exhibit on Southeast Asians that was coordinated by George Chigas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is accessible on this site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is also accessible on &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/seadauml?and%5B%5D=george+chigas&amp;amp;sin=" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;the Internet Archive&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the collection finding aid for more information, &lt;a href="https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;--------------------&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;SEADA would like to thank the following individuals for their work in making this collection available online: Etsuko Benton, Monita Chea, and Anthony Sampas.&lt;/span&gt;</text>

                <text>Earlier, Tim Sao bored holes into the kite's Tail Piece with a handmade tool made of a pointed steel shaft fit into a round wooden handle which he spun between his hands to drill the holes into the Tail Piece. In this picture you can see that two thin bamboo dowels have been inserted into these holes and secured at the other end by shaving them so thin that Tim was able to loop them over the Bottom Wing then bind them with wire. Except for the Aik the basic structure of the frame is now complete.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kite Making, photograph 8 of 19, from Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the Kite Making group of photographs in order on the Internet Archive, &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/CambodianKiteMaking" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://archive.org/details/CambodianKiteMaking&lt;/a&gt;.</text>

                <text>To affix the nylon covering to the kite's frame, the covering is first spread on the floor. The frame is then placed on top of the covering which is marked for reference to keep it in place while it is being cut. The covering is cut and glued section by section not pre-cut then glued in a single place as one might expect. Soeun Tim told us that in Cambodia if glue was not available he would make homemade glue by mixing rice flour with boiling water.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kate Making, photograph 9 of 19, from Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the Kite Making group of photographs in order on the Internet Archive, &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/CambodianKiteMaking" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://archive.org/details/CambodianKiteMaking&lt;/a&gt;.</text>

                  <text>This collection includes two series, the Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies, 1987, and the Southeast Asian Exhibit Photographs, 1988-1989. The first series includes Chigas’ 84-page paper on Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies created in 1987 along with corresponding photographs. The project, funded in part by the Historic Preservation Commission of Lowell, Massachusetts, explores the traditional crafts and religious ceremonies of the Cambodian refugees who settled in the Greater Lowell area in the aftermath of the Cambodian genocide. The second series includes 20 photographs from a Lowell exhibit on Southeast Asians that was coordinated by George Chigas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is accessible on this site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is also accessible on &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/seadauml?and%5B%5D=george+chigas&amp;amp;sin=" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;the Internet Archive&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the collection finding aid for more information, &lt;a href="https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;--------------------&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;SEADA would like to thank the following individuals for their work in making this collection available online: Etsuko Benton, Monita Chea, and Anthony Sampas.&lt;/span&gt;</text>

                <text>Soeun Tim readies the kite's vibrating ribbon for stringing to the bow. Like the other bamboo splits used to make the wings, the vibrating ribbon was shaved down with a knife. However, to make the strip flexible enough to vibrate it had to be honed down much more than the other pieces until it was nearly as thin as a sheet of paper. This can be difficult and painful for the craftsman since the friction generated by repeatedly pulling the bamboo ribbon between the knife and his finger can burn his skin. The thin ribbon is also notched at the ends and looped and hooked with the cord that will be strung to the bow piece which has similar notches. As was previously explained, the string can be restrung on the bow to adjust the tension. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kate Making, photograph 12 of 19, from Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the Kite Making group of photographs in order on the Internet Archive, &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/CambodianKiteMaking" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://archive.org/details/CambodianKiteMaking&lt;/a&gt;.</text>

                  <text>This collection includes two series, the Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies, 1987, and the Southeast Asian Exhibit Photographs, 1988-1989. The first series includes Chigas’ 84-page paper on Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies created in 1987 along with corresponding photographs. The project, funded in part by the Historic Preservation Commission of Lowell, Massachusetts, explores the traditional crafts and religious ceremonies of the Cambodian refugees who settled in the Greater Lowell area in the aftermath of the Cambodian genocide. The second series includes 20 photographs from a Lowell exhibit on Southeast Asians that was coordinated by George Chigas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is accessible on this site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is also accessible on &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/seadauml?and%5B%5D=george+chigas&amp;amp;sin=" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;the Internet Archive&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the collection finding aid for more information, &lt;a href="https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;--------------------&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;SEADA would like to thank the following individuals for their work in making this collection available online: Etsuko Benton, Monita Chea, and Anthony Sampas.&lt;/span&gt;</text>

                <text>Tim Sao fits the Aik onto the top of the kite's spine. The piece is made of two bamboo slats, the first is longer and will act as the bow that will pull the thin bamboo "singing" ribbon taut; the second piece is used to add support to the longer piece to which it is bound lengthwise with wire, and also provide a means for attaching the Aik to the top of the spine. This is done by separating the two tightly bound pieces and fitting the spine between them and fastening them with wire. The ends of the longer piece are notched like a hunting bow to fasten the string that will pull the vibrating ribbon taut.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kate Making, photograph 11 of 19, from Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the Kite Making group of photographs in order on the Internet Archive, &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/CambodianKiteMaking" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://archive.org/details/CambodianKiteMaking&lt;/a&gt;.</text>

                  <text>This collection includes two series, the Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies, 1987, and the Southeast Asian Exhibit Photographs, 1988-1989. The first series includes Chigas’ 84-page paper on Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies created in 1987 along with corresponding photographs. The project, funded in part by the Historic Preservation Commission of Lowell, Massachusetts, explores the traditional crafts and religious ceremonies of the Cambodian refugees who settled in the Greater Lowell area in the aftermath of the Cambodian genocide. The second series includes 20 photographs from a Lowell exhibit on Southeast Asians that was coordinated by George Chigas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is accessible on this site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is also accessible on &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/seadauml?and%5B%5D=george+chigas&amp;amp;sin=" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;the Internet Archive&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the collection finding aid for more information, &lt;a href="https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;--------------------&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;SEADA would like to thank the following individuals for their work in making this collection available online: Etsuko Benton, Monita Chea, and Anthony Sampas.&lt;/span&gt;</text>

                  <text>This collection includes two series, the Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies, 1987, and the Southeast Asian Exhibit Photographs, 1988-1989. The first series includes Chigas’ 84-page paper on Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies created in 1987 along with corresponding photographs. The project, funded in part by the Historic Preservation Commission of Lowell, Massachusetts, explores the traditional crafts and religious ceremonies of the Cambodian refugees who settled in the Greater Lowell area in the aftermath of the Cambodian genocide. The second series includes 20 photographs from a Lowell exhibit on Southeast Asians that was coordinated by George Chigas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is accessible on this site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is also accessible on &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/seadauml?and%5B%5D=george+chigas&amp;amp;sin=" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;the Internet Archive&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the collection finding aid for more information, &lt;a href="https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;--------------------&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;SEADA would like to thank the following individuals for their work in making this collection available online: Etsuko Benton, Monita Chea, and Anthony Sampas.&lt;/span&gt;</text>

                  <text>This collection includes two series, the Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies, 1987, and the Southeast Asian Exhibit Photographs, 1988-1989. The first series includes Chigas’ 84-page paper on Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies created in 1987 along with corresponding photographs. The project, funded in part by the Historic Preservation Commission of Lowell, Massachusetts, explores the traditional crafts and religious ceremonies of the Cambodian refugees who settled in the Greater Lowell area in the aftermath of the Cambodian genocide. The second series includes 20 photographs from a Lowell exhibit on Southeast Asians that was coordinated by George Chigas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is accessible on this site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is also accessible on &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/seadauml?and%5B%5D=george+chigas&amp;amp;sin=" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;the Internet Archive&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the collection finding aid for more information, &lt;a href="https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;--------------------&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;SEADA would like to thank the following individuals for their work in making this collection available online: Etsuko Benton, Monita Chea, and Anthony Sampas.&lt;/span&gt;</text>

                <text>To fly the Klaing Aik we went to a nearby park located on the crest of a hill that overlooks the city of Lowell. The infamous day of the flight was August 24, 1987. It was a beautiful, cool, fall-like day with big puffy clouds scudding across the sky; a perfect day to watch and take pictures of the Klaing Aik in action. However, when Soeun Tim and his father, Tim Sao, tried to launch the kite it climbed only ten feet into the air before veering to one side and crashing to the ground. On their second attempt, despite the strong gusts of wind that bent the tree tops, they were unable to launch the kite again. The wind was not steady enough, it came on strong then quickly died before the kite was aloft. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kate Making, photograph 17 of 19, from Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the Kite Making group of photographs in order on the Internet Archive, &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/CambodianKiteMaking" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://archive.org/details/CambodianKiteMaking&lt;/a&gt;.</text>

                  <text>This collection includes two series, the Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies, 1987, and the Southeast Asian Exhibit Photographs, 1988-1989. The first series includes Chigas’ 84-page paper on Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies created in 1987 along with corresponding photographs. The project, funded in part by the Historic Preservation Commission of Lowell, Massachusetts, explores the traditional crafts and religious ceremonies of the Cambodian refugees who settled in the Greater Lowell area in the aftermath of the Cambodian genocide. The second series includes 20 photographs from a Lowell exhibit on Southeast Asians that was coordinated by George Chigas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is accessible on this site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is also accessible on &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/seadauml?and%5B%5D=george+chigas&amp;amp;sin=" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;the Internet Archive&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the collection finding aid for more information, &lt;a href="https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;--------------------&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;SEADA would like to thank the following individuals for their work in making this collection available online: Etsuko Benton, Monita Chea, and Anthony Sampas.&lt;/span&gt;</text>

                <text>This needlework was made by Sarou Sieng who lives on Kimball Road in Lowell, Massachusetts. Originally she intended to make a large scale representation of the famous Angkor Wat, the celebrated Buddhist temple which is located in the old capital city of Angkor. Sarou Sieng became ill a few days after she began working on the project. This piece of her needlework is called a Srom Kinae and is used as a pillow case. The design is her own and was drawn for her by her son-in-law who lives with her. The picture was taken during her recovery from the operation.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Needlework, photograph 1 of 7, from Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the Needlework group of photographs in order on the Internet Archive, &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/CambodianNeedlework" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://archive.org/details/CambodianNeedlework&lt;/a&gt;.</text>

                  <text>This collection includes two series, the Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies, 1987, and the Southeast Asian Exhibit Photographs, 1988-1989. The first series includes Chigas’ 84-page paper on Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies created in 1987 along with corresponding photographs. The project, funded in part by the Historic Preservation Commission of Lowell, Massachusetts, explores the traditional crafts and religious ceremonies of the Cambodian refugees who settled in the Greater Lowell area in the aftermath of the Cambodian genocide. The second series includes 20 photographs from a Lowell exhibit on Southeast Asians that was coordinated by George Chigas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is accessible on this site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is also accessible on &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/seadauml?and%5B%5D=george+chigas&amp;amp;sin=" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;the Internet Archive&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the collection finding aid for more information, &lt;a href="https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;--------------------&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;SEADA would like to thank the following individuals for their work in making this collection available online: Etsuko Benton, Monita Chea, and Anthony Sampas.&lt;/span&gt;</text>

The second series includes 20 photographs from a Lowell exhibit on Southeast Asians that was coordinated by George Chigas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is accessible on this site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is also accessible on &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/seadauml?and%5B%5D=george+chigas&amp;amp;sin=" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;the Internet Archive&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the collection finding aid for more information, &lt;a href="https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;--------------------&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;SEADA would like to thank the following individuals for their work in making this collection available online: Etsuko Benton, Monita Chea, and Anthony Sampas.&lt;/span&gt;</text>

The second series includes 20 photographs from a Lowell exhibit on Southeast Asians that was coordinated by George Chigas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is accessible on this site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is also accessible on &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/seadauml?and%5B%5D=george+chigas&amp;amp;sin=" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;the Internet Archive&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the collection finding aid for more information, &lt;a href="https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;--------------------&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;SEADA would like to thank the following individuals for their work in making this collection available online: Etsuko Benton, Monita Chea, and Anthony Sampas.&lt;/span&gt;</text>

                  <text>This collection includes two series, the Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies, 1987, and the Southeast Asian Exhibit Photographs, 1988-1989. The first series includes Chigas’ 84-page paper on Cambodian Traditional Crafts and Religious Ceremonies created in 1987 along with corresponding photographs. The project, funded in part by the Historic Preservation Commission of Lowell, Massachusetts, explores the traditional crafts and religious ceremonies of the Cambodian refugees who settled in the Greater Lowell area in the aftermath of the Cambodian genocide. The second series includes 20 photographs from a Lowell exhibit on Southeast Asians that was coordinated by George Chigas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is accessible on this site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of the collection is also accessible on &lt;a href="https://archive.org/details/seadauml?and%5B%5D=george+chigas&amp;amp;sin=" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;the Internet Archive&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;View the collection finding aid for more information, &lt;a href="https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;https://libguides.uml.edu/uml2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;--------------------&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;SEADA would like to thank the following individuals for their work in making this collection available online: Etsuko Benton, Monita Chea, and Anthony Sampas.&lt;/span&gt;</text>
