Project Honor / GoFundMe: Project Honor

After a tough year of pain and strife within the Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) community, 'Project Honor' was born to uplift, bring joy and support to the AAPI community in the Bay Area and beyond. To counter the daily acts of hate against Asian Americans (example 1/2/3/Atlanta shooting), Goodby Silverstein & Partners (GS&P) partnered with a world-renowned artist, Victo Ngai, and GoFundMe to create a powerful public art with the message: "To be Asian is an honour." Inspired by Sandra Oh’s 2019 Golden Globes acceptance speech, this artwork consists of 55 hand-illustrated pieces featuring portraits of the AAPI community. It captures joy, diversity and pride of the AAPI community while celebrating their accomplishments. Sponsored by GoFundMe, the full gallery of art can be found on the Project Honor landing page, in addition to more information about how to support the AAPI Community Fund, donations to which support organisations that uplift and empower the AAPI community. This traveling artwork is being featured at multiple sites in the Bay Area including the historical landmark, the SF Ferry Building and the iconic digital screen at Salesforce West through May (AAPI Heritage month). It will continue to travel to other locations in June.
