We Stand Together to Stop AAPI Hate is a project hosted by Make Room Los Angeles @makeroom.la that brings together dozens of works committed by over 40 foremost diverse artists across generations, including Claire Colette, Alannah Farrell, and Ryan Wilde. The works will be sold to benefit the AAPI Community Fund and Stop AAPI Hate Organization @stopAAPIHate to enable tracking and efficient response to the surge in racism and xenophobia. Co-organized by our very own gallery... director Sarah Han, This coalition of artists and cultural workers aims to confront the aggravated racism, xenophobia, and violence towards Asians in America. While extremely saddened and enraged by the countless abuse, assaults, and hate crimes, including the Atlanta mass shooting on March 16th, 2021, we have decided to take action by starting a fundraiser to benefit the initiatives of Stop AAPI Hate and raise public awareness. 100% of the gallery proceeds will be donated. At the end of the fundraiser, the number of funds raised will be made public on the gallery website.
