For far too long, Asian-Americans have been expected to keep our heads down, to play by the rules, and to take up as little space as possible. We’re lauded only insofar as we can benefit white hegemony; our art and our cultures are pushed aside.

For Lunar New Year 2023, The Bakery Atlanta invites you to be unwavering in your support for the AAPI community, and to celebrate AAPI artists and creatives working in and around Atlanta. Year of the Rabbit is a three day exhibition, and will take place at the Bakery South Downtown (92 Peachtree St, Atlanta, GA 30303) on January 20th, 2022 from 4-9 pm, January 21st from 11-4 pm, and January 22nd from 11-4 pm. We hope to highlight the majesty of AAPI art, to demonstrate the force of the AAPI arts community in Atlanta, and to inspire future generations of AAPI artists to take up space unapologetically.

The suggested donation range for this event is $5-30. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to Red Canary Song.

“Red Canary Song is a a grassroots massage worker coalition in the U.S. There are over 9000 workplaces like these across the country with no political representation, or access to labor rights or collective organizing. Anti-trafficking NGO’s that claim to speak for migrants in sex trades promote increased policing and immigration control, which harms rather than helps migrant sex workers. Red Canary Song also organizes transnationally with Asian sex workers across the diaspora in Toronto, Paris, and Hong Kong.”
