Interwoven Worlds: Art of APIMEDA Diasporas

Exhibition
Interwoven Worlds: Art of APIMEDA Diasporas
June 26 – July 26
Maryland Federation of Art’s Circle Gallery
18 State Circle
Annapolis, MD 21401

Asian Arts & Culture Center and the Maryland Federation of Art (MFA) invites APIMEDA (Asian, Pacific Islander, Middle Eastern, and Desi American) artists to share works that express their cultural heritage, reflect cross-cultural influences, and/or convey/incorporate their unique American experiences. Any original 2D and 3D artwork in any media will be considered. Works selected by the juror will be exhibited in MFA’s Circle Gallery in Annapolis from June 26 – July 26, 2025.

The acronym APIMEDA was coined by the Coalition for Critical Asian American Studies (CCAAS) at the University of California – San Diego, and has been adopted by academic institutions and other organizations to be a more inclusive and intersectional alternative to the umbrella term of “Asian American.” While reflecting a diverse range of ethnic, cultural and national backgrounds, APIMEDA also acknowledges the common experiences and overlapping identities shared within this diaspora.
