BPAC
Boston Progress Arts Collective (BPAC) was founded in 2002 with three primary goals: to support and promote Asian/Pacific Islander artists in the Boston area and nationally, to emphasize the importance of arts for API communities, and to use the arts as a means of educating and organizing API communities.
Boston Progress provides a safe space for Asian Pacific American perspectives to be expressed and observed through visual, literary, and performance arts. BPAC seeks to build a strong sense of community among its membership, and outreach to API communities by promoting the importance of art as a tool for positive social change.
BPAC identifies as a space for API people, while simultaneously redefining the term API to be inclusive of South Asian, Southeast Asian, East Asian, West Asian (Middle Eastern), Pacific Islander, and Multi-Racial peoples. BPAC welcomes all people who work to create positive change, regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, or any immutable characteristic.
