The Hilando Resistencia Art Exhibit is a community-based exhibition that showcases embroidered pieces created by Latin American migrant women in San Francisco as part of the Hilando Resistencia project.
Through textile art, participants transformed personal migration stories, memories, and emotions into visual testimonies that reflect resilience, displacement, identity, and collective healing.
Inspired by the Latin American tradition of arpilleras, the exhibit highlights embroidery as a form of political expression and storytelling, inviting the public to witness how art can preserve memory, make invisible struggles visible, and affirm the strength of migrant women’s voices.

In honor of Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month, join us for a special program featuring Chinatown Records 華埠錄音, a community-driven collective and archive rooted in Manhattan’s Chinatown, New York City.
Founded in 2018 by DJ historian yiuyiu 瑶瑶 and her family, Chinatown Records preserves and celebrates the music, memories, and histories found within more than 35 record, CD, and tape collections gathered from the neighborhood and beyond. This ever-growing archive reflects the cultural vibrancy and lived experiences of Chinatown communities.
Now bringing the music coast to coast, Bay Area–raised yiuyiu shares selections from the archive through live DJ sets and storytelling. Known for spinning back-to-back with longtime, emerging, and first-time DJs, she creates an inclusive space where community members of all ages can connect through music.
