R Visions for Chinatown is a one-week series of temporary art interventions in Boston’s Chinatown highlighting issues and struggles of the Chinese community. R Visions features local artists’ work with an emphasis on interactive art and engaging the public.
This fall, R Visions for Chinatown aims to highlight the affordable housing crisis, particularly focusing on the displacement of residents from Chinatown’s historic row houses and calling for their right to remain in the community.
Please join us on the week of September 20 - 26th for the second annual R VISIONS FOR CHINATOWN!
