When I first heard about the NYS AAPI Community Fund CACF was launching, I resonated with addressing Asian American hate holistically. I hope to showcase the strength and power of the AAPI community and its significant contribution to American society. Jessica Chen, Artistic Director and Founder. Quotation icon.

Working with all AAPI staff and creatives has been a process of healing that part of myself. I believe there is power in the AAPI community. Together, we can amplify our voices.

I hope to provide a sense of belonging and comfort, and a place to heal. Conversations about identity and belonging helps us understand our own experiences and empathize with others.

The canonical dance artists Bill T. Jones and Eiko Otake, friends since the 1980s, aren’t afraid to take on the big topics. Here, they talk beauty, doubt and death. nyti.ms/3JgtCme

Bill T. Jones and Eiko Otake: Opposites Guided by ‘Too-Much-Ness’ (Published 2022)

These two canonical dance artists, both now 70, share a willingness to take on weighty issues.
