online
Opening Wednesday, April 28th, from 12AM - 12PM

Chicago API (Asian, Pacific Islander) Artists United (CAAU) was formed by a collective of Asian, Asian-American, Pacific Islander artists and art workers in Chicago. CAAU aims to mobilize art networks and practices to create a safe and equitable society for all communities.
“We have come together at this moment in time in 2021, to address anti-Asian sentiment in the United States, both recent and historical — including harassment, discrimination, physical attacks, incarceration and murders. Every single one of us, our families, and our friends have been deeply affected.
We have organized Art Advancing Justice, a virtual fundraiser with 137 works of art and books from 79 contributors available from April 28th through May 22nd, 2021, to support Asian Americans Advancing Justice|Chicago.”
