Asian Arts Initiative

🌿 AAI’s Block Party returns to the Rail Park this summer on Saturday, June 6, 12-4PM 🌿

At this year’s Block Party, AAI’s youth education program will unveil a public mural based on a mythological creation story imagined by the students. The story and characters will be rooted in the students’ experiences at AAI, as well as inherited knowledge about the program.

Through an accompanied scavenger hunt, the mural will invite viewers to interact with it by hinting at clues that implore visitors to explore the landscape in search of three-dimensional works scattered throughout Rail Park.
