YELLOW: An Open Mic Centering Asian Voices

For Asians, yellow represents soil & earth, life, resistance, courage, rebirth, revolution, & unity.

We are reclaiming and rewriting all narratives that undermine the richness and complexity of Asian individuals, cultures, traditions, & longing. Join us in amplifying and celebrating Asian heritage with song, dance, poetry, performance, & discourse.

For a peek into the power & creativity of some of our Asian artists, delight in our gift bag from CommemorASIAN: Shame is Not Ours to Keep (performances are marked in the caption).

There is no need to sign up to perform. Anyone can perform as long as they are amplifying Asian voices, artists, & experiences. A list of Asian artists will be shared for participants to peruse their work and share whatever resonates with them – of course, you are welcome to add to our list!

Each artist will have 5 minutes to share.
