Artist Exchange Performance at AAI, Friday, 12/5


Hi everyone,

I'm performing this Friday at the Asian Arts Initiative--with the amazing group of artists above. I have to say this has been my most enjoyable experience in an Artist Exchange ever (I've done 3). Would love to see anyone who can swing through.

XOXO,
Michelle

About the 2008 Artists Exchange
What are the dynamics of building community? How can artists support a neighborhood’s development? How can art stop displacement? Inspired by our own recent relocation, the Asian Arts Initiative invites a dozen diverse artists to create new artwork in response to these current concerns.

The Asian Arts Initiative’s 2008 Artists Exchange is made possible with support from the Philadelphia Yearly Meeting, Anna H. and Elizabeth M. Chace Fund.
