About this project
Help Maria the Korean Bride Get MARRIED IN ALL FIFTY STATES! Thus far I have completed 43 weddings from 43 different states. When complete, I intend to make a feature documentary. For now, I have seven remaining states: Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, South and North Dakota to name a few. With your help I hope to raise $2,900 by April 15th, 2010. The fund will be used for travel, film editing and production cost. Please visit http://www.mariathekoreanbride.com/ for more. Thank you!

Maria is also a Contractual Senior Educator/Consultant for the Education Department at various museums in New York City. Since 2001 to present, Maria has begun working on a new series entitled Maria the Korean Bride. It is a multi-media performance designed to bring attention to the social pressure that Maria has endured as a first generation Korean-American unmarried woman. Her on-going journey across America has received much attention especially with Koreans and other Asian American communities in New York, as well as institutions like the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
