2020 has been a difficult year. From the xenophobia towards Asian Americans caused by COVID-19, to the worrisome disproportionate number of COVID-19 cases affecting Pacific Islanders, and to the national uprisings surrounding the Black Lives Matter movement, we must look to end the year with hope.

Art is a form of expression that can be both cathartic and inspire positive action. Act To Change (ATC), the Daniel K. Inouye Institute (DKII), and the Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Center (APAC) encourage youth submit creative face mask designs to our #KindnessHeals campaign.
