SUMMARY:Exhibit:  "The Monkey King in Chinatown" by AAPI Comic Book and Graphic Novel Artists
DESCRIPTION:The Monkey King is the epitome of tricksterdom. First appearing in the 14th-century Chinese novel\, “Journey to the West\,” the character born as Sun Wukong embodies rebellion\, individualism\, and daring. He’s also the inspiration behind the stunning works in this exhibition. \nCurator Jerry Ma’s modern Monkey King idea began with his first exhibition at Pearl River Mart\, A CHINATOWN ODYSSEY (which inspired his graphic novel). This solo show was his reimagining of the mythical creature and his legendary cohorts on adventures — and misadventures — throughout NYC’s Chinatown. \nThis new exhibition\, featuring the works of eight renowned AAPI comic book and graphic novel artists\, furthers those adventures. The pieces reimagine the simian folk hero as everything from a punk rocker to a dancing king to a ferocious b-baller. They place him in iconic Chinatown spots\, like Columbus Park with its Chinese chess enthusiasts\, the Canal Street subway station (complete with pizza rat)\, a lively dim sum eatery\, and the Transfiguration Church and beloved Hop Kee restaurant. \nThey connect the past with the present\, bringing a Chinese legend into a Chinese American community\, and beyond. They make him part of that community. Eating\, dancing\, playing\, and laughing alongside its members. \nThe exhibition also features the artists’ works from their careers as comic book and graphic novel artists\, and is accompanied by installations in Chelsea Market and the outdoor tables of the Meatpacking District. Both framed and unframed prints are available for purchase. \nThe featured artists: \n\nBernard Chang\nSean Chen\nCliff Chiang\nSoo Lee\nHoward Ma\nJerry Ma (curator)\nJerome Opeña\nKimberly Wang

SUMMARY:Photo Exhibit: The Lams of Ludlow St
DESCRIPTION:The Lams of Ludlow Street\nThomas Holton \nBAXTER ST is pleased to present The Lams of Ludlow Street\, a solo exhibition by photographer Thomas Holton\, presented as part of the organization’s Mid-Career Initiative. Spanning over two decades\, this deeply personal body of work chronicles the evolving lives of a single Chinese-American family in Manhattan’s Chinatown\, offering an intimate exploration of identity\, belonging\, and the everyday moments that shape our understanding of home. \nSince 2003\, Holton has immersed himself in the life of the Lam family\, capturing both the private and public dimensions of their world with an unfiltered\, empathetic lens. What began as an artistic inquiry into his own Chinese heritage has evolved into a lifelong commitment to storytelling—one that reflects the complexities of family\, migration\, and cultural hybridity in contemporary America. \nA lifelong New Yorker of mixed Chinese and American descent\, Holton has long grappled with a sense of detachment from his Chinese roots. His photographic journey with the Lams became both a creative and personal act of connection\, a way to bridge the gaps in his own identity through the lens of another family’s experiences. The resulting images document adolescence\, marriage\, resilience\, and the quiet\, unscripted moments that define family life. \nPresented at a time when Chinatown\, like many immigrant communities\, faces profound social and economic shifts\, The Lams of Ludlow Street serves as both a visual archive and a meditation on what it means to belong. Holton’s images remind us of the power of long-term storytelling—of what it means to bear witness to time\, change\, and human connection. \nPhoto credit: Thomas Holton

SUMMARY:[REPLAY] Foundations 2025: "Modernity" and Institutional Racism
DESCRIPTION:Register to view the workshop recording\, taking a deep dive into understanding systemic racism and global “modernity.”\n\n\nInstitutional Racism and “Modernity” (Recording) \nThis session recording takes a deep dive into understanding systemic racism\, with a focus on institutional racism as the historical engine of global “modernity.” \nAll are welcome. We offer these trainings in order to equip you with histories and critical frameworks that can deepen the work of antiracism in your lives and in your communities. This three-part series intentionally integrates what is often left out of general racial justice education: AAPI experiences and decolonial values. They represent our beliefs and values as an organization and are the foundation for organizing emergent community-led labs for mutual care\, community-building\, collaboration and innovation. \nThe facilitator for this series is AAJIL’s founder and Co-Executive Director\, Dr. Sandra So Hee Chi Kim. She is an adjunct professor of race and ethnic studies at Cal State LA and a visiting scholar in USC’s Department of American Studies and Ethnicity. Her research explores the intersections of race\, global coloniality\, migration\, and culture. Her articles have appeared in Diaspora: A Journal of Transnational Studies\, Positions: Asia Critique\, Korean Studies\, Discourse: Journal for Theoretical Studies in Media and Culture\, and Occasion: Interdisciplinary Studies in the Humanities. She is currently working on a book manuscript entitled The Kinship of Empires: Transpacific Coloniality and Korean Historical Trauma. \nThe Asian American Justice + Innovation Lab (AAJIL) is a community racial justice incubator committed to education\, community-building\, and innovation for promoting justice\, radical love\, and emergence. \nAll workshop donations go directly towards covering AAJIL’s operating costs. As a completely volunteer-run organization\, we are so grateful for your financial support! \nwww.aajil.org \nwww.instagram.com/aajil_org/ \n \nYou will be able to access the link by signing into your Eventbrite and viewing links from Get Tickets or going the link under Location with View Event Details. \nApplication for our Formations Program ’25-’26 available now.

SUMMARY:Asian American Psychological Association Convention in Denver\, CO
DESCRIPTION:In Resistance\, We Find Liberation. In Community\, We Find Joy.\n​It’s hard to find joy in the midst of activism and resistance\, and yet our movements depend on holding onto joy – together. Resistance is not just about struggle; it is also about healing\, connection\, and the radical act of embracing joy. Our organization seeks to uplift both resistance and joy\, honoring the ways they sustain each other in our collective work. This year’s theme\, “In Resistance\, We Find Liberation. In Community\, We Find Joy\,” brings together our shared commitments to activist scholarship\, collective healing\, and community empowerment. It invites us to explore the ways that joy fuels our resistance\, sustains our activism and scholarship\, and strengthens our communities. As we engage in a long-term struggle against oppression\, we must also create spaces for celebration\, renewal\, and hope. This theme highlights our presidential mission of embracing the full spectrum of our experiences\, recognizing that joy is not merely a byproduct of liberation but an essential part of the process itself. \nWe invite our community of psychologists\, researchers\, scholars\, practitioners\, community workers\, healers\, elders\, and students to share their expertise\, scholarship\, and journeys in navigating these interwoven forces. We document so much pain\, yet joy remains an underexplored and radical force in our work. This convention is an invitation to remember joy\, to reclaim it\, and to embrace it as an integral part of our resistance. As the saying goes… \nIf you want to run fast\, run alone. If you want to run far\, run together. \n

SUMMARY:MOCA CINEMA - Dancing Home 跳進部落的孩子
DESCRIPTION:Dancing Home is a heartfelt documentary tracing the artistic journey of world-renowned Paiwan choreographer Bulareyaung Pagarlava.\n\n\nDancing Home is a heartfelt documentary tracing the artistic journey of world-renowned Paiwan choreographer Bulareyaung Pagarlava\, a member of one of Taiwan’s Indigenous tribes\, whose work is deeply rooted in nature and indigenous heritage. Presented by the Museum of Chinese in America\, the film follows Bulareyaung’s return to his hometown in Taitung\, Taiwan\, where he found renewal at a time of personal and professional uncertainty. \nA graduate of Taipei National University of the Arts and former dancer with the legendary Cloud Gate Dance Theatre\, Bulareyaung later received an Asian Cultural Council fellowship to study in New York in 1998. He went on to choreograph for internationally acclaimed companies\, including the Martha Graham Dance Company. \nIn 2015\, supported by the Luo Manfei Dance Grant\, he founded the Bulareyaung Dance Company—offering a space for indigenous youth\, many without formal training\, to explore contemporary dance. Dancing Home captures their shared journey of self-discovery\, as these young performers reconnect with their roots and\, in doing so\, help Bulareyaung reconnect with his own. \nThe screening will be followed by an in-person Q&A with Bulareyaung\, focusing on his artistic experiences in New York and his lifelong commitment to uplifting Indigenous communities through dance. \n*This 90-minute documentary is presented in Mandarin with English subtitles. \nThis program is supported by Taipei Cultural Center of TECO in New York. \n \nABOUT Bulareyaung Pagarlava\nBorn in the Jialan Village in Taitung\, Taiwan\, Paiwan choreographer Bulareyaung Pagarlava’s name means “happy warrior.” \nHe dreamed of becoming a dancer at the age of 12\, choreographed his first piece while studying at Taipei National University of the Arts\, and later joined Cloud Gate Dance Theatre\, performing solo works on tours around the world. In 1998\, he received a fellowship from the Asian Cultural Council to study in New York. His choreography has been featured by esteemed companies such as the Martha Graham Dance Company in the U.S.\, Cloud Gate Dance Theatre\, and Cloud Gate 2 in Taiwan. He has also been invited to perform at prestigious international venues\, including the Vancouver Winter Olympics Arts Festival\, the Vail International Dance Festival in the U.S.\, and Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival. His works have been praised internationally for their “wild originality\, humor\, sensuality\, and surprise—making modern dance irresistible.” \nIn 2010\, while taking a curtain call hand-in-hand with the Martha Graham dancers at Lincoln Center\, Bulareyaung thought to himself\, “How wonderful it would be to be holding hands with my own people.” That wish became a mission. In 2015\, he returned to his hometown in Taitung and founded the Bulareyaung Dance Company (B.D.C.). Drawing from the rich cultural heritage of indigenous communities and rooted in a landscape between mountains and sea\, B.D.C. empowers local youth who love to dance. Through the exploration of voice and movement\, the company develops a unique vocabulary of indigenous contemporary dance.

Established in 2015 in Cali\, Colombia and currently based between Cali and New York\, Calipso explores publishing as a site for research\, collaboration\, and critical imagination. \nCalipso’s practice centers on the book as a space for experimentation and conversation\, treating printed matter not only as a format but as a methodology. From 2015 to 2022\, Calipso hosted a residency program dedicated to expanded publishing and print-based inquiry\, welcoming artists\, writers\, and researchers to develop projects that blur the boundaries between disciplines\, formats\, and geographies. \nCalipso Press has participated in international art book fairs including the New York Art Book Fair\, UNFOLD Shanghai\, Libros Mutantes Madrid\, and Rrreplica México\, and has curated contemporary art and publishing projects such as Post-Digital Mimeography (Colombia Biennial\, 2016)\, No Room for Books (Brazil\, 2017)\, and soft revolution (Madrid\, 2014). \nLucky Risograph is an Asian and Hispanic-owned print press and design studio based in DUMBO\, Brooklyn. Since our establishment in 2019\, we have continued incorporating the eco-conscious\, accessible\,and affordable nature of risograph printing into our everyday practice. \nLight refreshments will be provided. \nAAAinA’s general programming and operations are funded in part by the New York State Council on the Arts\, the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council\, the Vilcek Foundation\, and other foundations and individuals.

SUMMARY:The Shed Exhibition Walkthrough of Open Call: Portals
DESCRIPTION:Civil Art is pleased to invite you to a guided tour of the Open Call: Portals exhibition at The Shed\, led by Dejá Belardo\, Assistant Curator\, Civic Programs and Visual Art. \nThe exhibition walkthrough will delve into the process of curating these emerging artists’ installation-based works and their social\, political\, and ecological relevance to the world we live in. \nIMPORTANT: Make sure to cross-register for a free ticket to the exhibition on The Shed’s website. You must do this in order to access the walkthrough.https://at.theshed.org/program/447-open-call-portals \nItinerary: \n2:30 – 2:40 PM | Guests arrive\n2:40 – 3:30 PM | Exhibition Walkthrough \nAbout Civil Art \nCivil Art empowers the Asian Pacific Islander (API) community by making the contributions of the API creatives accessible to wider demographics through our educational programming\, editorial platform\, community gatherings\, and other events. Civil Art’s public programming highlights the ways in which the contributions of API creatives communicate cultural narratives\, including employing themes that speak to the multiplicity of the API community’s identity. Our programming raises awareness of the community’s diverse histories while fostering opportunities for intra-community connection\, understanding\, and further creative development. \nAbout Open Call: Portals \nTwelve early-career\, NYC-based artists and collectives present new works that harness personal stories and ancestral global history to open portals for passage\, transformation\, and resistance. Ranging from painting and film to sculpture and performance\, their works explore forces shaping our world: colonialism\, migration\, and environmental crisis. \nTogether these artists forge profound connections between the past and present\, memory and material\, and displacement and belonging to create Open Call: Portals. Artists featured in the exhibition were selected as part of Open Call\, a commissioning program for early-career\, NYC-based artists redefining what it means to make art.
