The Asian/Pacific/American Institute presents exhibitions showcasing emerging and established artists to foster dialogue and deeper understanding.

Current & Recent Exhibitions

Each exhibition is part of an ongoing effort by A/P/A to investigate modes of artistic and creative expression among Asian/Pacific/American and diasporic communities. Presented in conjunction with relevant A/P/A courses, symposia, and public programs, the exhibitions offer opportunities for students, faculty, and community members to engage in dialogue and explore new ideas through the specificity of one artist’s vision.
