NEW PUBLICATION! 💥 The No Arena Strategy Playbook is a collection of lessons from 16 No Arena organizers about how to build a large-scale movement that is fierce and joyful while centering relationship and solidarity above all. An edition of 150 risograph zines printed beautifully by Many Folds Press (@manyfortunes) featuring original illustrations by Esther Lui (@etlui) and designed by Lily Xie (@lolysoups). Pick up a copy at AAU’s Mid Autumn Festival on Saturday September 26. From the playbook introduction, written by Lauren Lowe: Rather than covering a comprehensive, in-depth narrative of the 2+ years long movement, you’ll find here reflections and tactics from organizers and volunteers sharing insights from their experiences together. … During the campaign, we’d often acknowledge there was ‘an arena in every neighborhood.’ We know the arena fight was just one of many in Philadelphia—and beyond—against predatory development. Others have been and continue to organize around urgent issues of their own. We see this playbook as a gesture of learning and exchange, a reference for anyone inspired to organize with their friends and neighbors. We hope it can be a reminder of what’s possible when people come together, united by a vision for a more just world. Featuring writing and interviews from: Nicole, Yvonne Lung, LL, Vivian Chang, Alli Lau, Jenny Zhang, Kaia Lin Chau, Faye, Wei Chen, Kimmy Cook, Pallavi Rao, Britt Alston, Clarise McCants, Melissa McCleery, Debbie Wei, and Debora Kodish This project was generously supported by the Leeway Foundation @leewayfound

Spotlight this month is on Lily Xie @lolysoups! Lily Xie is a Chinese-American artist whose socially-engaged work explores desire, memory, and self-determination for communities of color. Lily shared her insights on urban planning, animation, the importance of PopEd, and the importance of honoring our ancestors and those who have been at the forefront of movement work with our current socially-engaged practices. This fall, Lily and #NoArenaChinatown will be debuting the No Arena Strategy Playbook with hopes that new organizers and people interested in getting involved in organizing can learn something and get inspired, and that we can record some of the reflections from this powerful fight. Read Lily's full spotlight via the link in our bio!

Tomorrow night! As part of SOUL STAKE: Degenerate Art show we bring you BLUE RIDER: Activations in Body & Sound || 3/28 || 7-11pm Echoing Kandinsky’s vision of art as a synthesis of the senses, where color, sound, and motion converge, BLUE RIDER unfolds as a series of audio/visual physical activations that blur boundaries between audience and artist, body and vibration, and interior and collective space. Sound as gesture. Movement as resonance. We are thrilled to premiere the beautiful animation by Lily Xie @lolysoups created after Capricious Line by Wassily Kandinsky, the animation featured in the first video, come see it in person tomorrow!! Throughout the night, artists @ln_celestine @saturn_as_a_girl @ariaztro @ozymandioos Amalia Wilson @jordandealart @core_human_function_ @technoethnic @domi_nic_____ will inhabit and animate space through sonic ritual and durational action. Bodies as conduits, transmitting memory, tension, and release. Those witnessing are participants in this evening of activations, there is no passive viewership while moving in embodied time and space. Tickets in bio 💙
