“I think it’s everything to see your image in movies.” — Diane Paragas, director, YELLOW ROSE

Films have the power to create narrative change and empower underrepresented voices. ARRAY is proud to celebrate our Asian American and Pacific Islander community on- and off-screen.

Be part of ARRAY's community for a day! We’re opening ARRAYs Creative Campus as a one-day co-working space to support those displaced from home offices due to the recent LA urban fires or for those of us who just need dedicated space and time to cross things off the "to-do" list. ArrayPlay.com.

Imagine thinking you could stop us. We don't need permission to celebrate ourselves. Black history is not a curriculum to be revised, a government celebration to be canceled or textbook to be taken off a shelf. It’s a legacy that can not be erased. Visit array101.org for our free learning guides.
