Special Events

We stage performances which have received local and national media attention. We also throw bangin’ parties—because we can’t change the world together if we don’t know how to have a good time together.

Some of the events we’ve hosted and/or co-produced include:

2005 National Asian Pacific Islander American Spoken Word & Poetry Summit
Missed Sigh Gone - A Creative Protest Showcase
Exit Clov Concert

We’re always down to collaborate, too! If you’ve got something you’d like to produce, you can send us a line at collective (AT) bostonprogress (DOT) org.

Welcome

Boston Progress Arts Collective is a community of API* artists that aims to create a supportive space and outlet for personal growth, creative expression, and artistic exploration. We strive to use art as an active means for mobilization and education within our communities locally, nationally, and beyond.

API* is a reappropriation of the term API, which was created by the US government to more easily categorize our communities. While API still stands for Asian/Pacific Islander, with the * we redefine and expand the term to include- but not limited to: South-, Southeast-, East-, Central-, or West-Asian, Middle Eastern, Arab, Pacific Islander, Oceanic, Americans of Asian decent, multiracial, adoptee, “other,” or however one chooses to represent their cultural/political/ethnic identity.
