Our Story

In the summer of 2020, as the COVID-19 pandemic rampaged throughout the world, we sought after ways to uplift communities experiencing effects of both the disease and racism. With a love for photography, videography, and design, we wanted to utilize our skills to share the stories of the people behind our beloved Boston Chinatown businesses. 

Since then, our organization continues to use our creative abilities in documenting the neighborhood’s changes, joys, struggles, and more. We hope that our work will encourage our audience to expand both their knowledge and palates.
