Awardees include multimedia portrait artist Mickalene Thomas, Reservation Dogs co-creator and showrunner Sterlin Harjo, Oscar-nommed filmmaker Irene Taylor, and James Beard Award-nominated chef/entrepreneurs Peter Cho and Sun Young Park, who will “construct a full culinary takeover of the night from their award-winning restaurant Han Oak.”
