Let’s stand together to support an important community institution that tells an important piece of the American story. While there are different views, opinions and interests involved, we seek to rebuild community solidarity and common ground based on civil and constructive engagement. Their collections are important for the general public, researchers, and future generations. MOCA is a vibrant and robust cultural heritage institution with a long history that embraces and includes diverse narratives of Chinese-Americans. We urge that protests be directed at City Hall (Mayor & City Council), not MOCA. Tuesday-Sunday 10:00-18:00 (Monday MMCA Seoul Opening) MMCA Seoul and Deoksugung late night openings on Wednesday and Saturday 10:00-21:00. We support the continued fight against the expansion of the Chinatown jail. These protests are misguided and harmful to MOCA and to the community. We certainly do NOT condone the boycott of MOCA, the weekly pickets in front of the museum, and the harassment of artists who are participating in MOCA’s current exhibit. But we do NOT support blaming MOCA for the City’s decisions about the jail. We oppose the Mayor’s plan to construct a larger jail in Chinatown. We support the Museum of Chinese in America (MOCA), including its pursuit of a larger and permanent home. We are concerned New Yorkers and friends with long-standing interests in the well-being and future of Chinatown, from poverty alleviation and labor rights to economic development, from health care access and civic participation to educational opportunities, and from promotion of the arts to the preservation of Chinese American history and cultural heritage.
