Moon Square 2021

Chinatown Arts Week follows the Mid-Autumn festival...and we all know what happens to mooncake tins after the mooncakes are eaten. They become treasure boxes of small things, memories, and preserver of wishes. Inspired by the place of mooncake tins in our memories, and in our present day observance of the festival, we asked our community of artists to use mooncake tins as the starting point for new works of art dedicated to the spirit of the mooncake tin!

Proceeds from the auction will be shared with T!C

Think!Chinatown projects sit at the cross-section of civic & neighborhood engagement, storytelling, and the arts. It’s hard to categorize our work sometimes, but whatever we’re working on… it’s to support what we love about Chinatown! We amplify the voices of our neighbors & advocate for equity in resources for Chinatown. We honor histories that represent us & value inter-generational learning. Learn about our multi-media oral history projects, cultural classes & talks. We present grassroots arts of Chinatown & give context to emerging Asian-American artists.
