We are excited to present A Story That Lives Within US: Ada — Volume II, a multidisciplinary group exhibition featuring 17 artists that explores the stories, memories, and lived experiences of Taiwanese immigrants in the United States.

Opening on August 13, 2026, at Crossing Art in Chelsea, New York, the exhibition brings together contemporary art, oral histories, and written narratives to explore migration, identity, belonging, and cultural heritage.

Volume II focuses on New York City during the 1980s and 1990s, reflecting the challenges, transformations, and resilience of immigrant communities. Through the symbolic journey of Ada Lin, the exhibition connects personal memories with the evolving history of the city, creating a space where immigrant stories are preserved and shared across generations.

Throughout the exhibition, we will also present public programs and hands-on workshops. Stay tuned for upcoming announcements!
