520 This article traces how the creation of a Thai Theravada
Buddhist temple, known as the Wat (Temple) Thai Los
Angeles, in North Hollywood, California, gave rise to the
formation of a Thai community in the greater Los Angeles
area in the 1970s. The research examines how the Thai
community throughout Southern California came together and
formed such a grand project at the time. The paper focuses
on the people who created the idea of erecting a temple in
Los Angeles. In this study, I present oral history
accounts of people who were directly involved in the
project highlighting community volunteerism and activism.
I examine how religious institutions can serve as the
centerpiece of ethnic community formation in the United
States
