Pao Arts Center brings Amanda Phingbodhipakkiya’s We Are More, a public art campaign that celebrates the resilience and diversity of the Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) community, to Greater Boston. The campaign debuted in NYC, and gives the AAPI community a powerful voice, responding to the stereotyping, harassment, and violence that has become increasingly severe amidst COVID-19. Now, in collaboration with the MBTA, City of Boston, Orange Barrel Media, and WGBH, you can experience this work on over 80 digital billboards in the area.
