Virtual photography exhibit celebrates Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month
In celebration of Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, photojournalist Bonita Lei created a virtual photography exhibition documenting Asian-Americans’ lives in New York City.
With the collaboration of State Senator Andrew Gounardes, Assemblymember Peter Abbate and Councilmember Justin Brannan, “About Us: Celebrating Asian Month, Cherishing Our Community” was created.
Lei spent three decades documenting Asian-Americans’ lives in New York City and across the U.S. Her work captures jubilant moments of Asian-Americans celebrating their traditions.
