LIGHT IT UP
Congratulations to the New York Liberty for winning their first WNBA championship yesterday.
Last year, the next generation of Liberty fans helped light up Barclays Center with artist May Bukowski for an AAPI night fan engagement mural. The design featured a fire breathing dragon, illuminating the Liberty’s torch, a symbol of igniting a bright future.
“The dragon’s dynamic presence represents both power and good fortune,” May said.
“This mural showcases iconic landmarks from a diverse array of Asian countries, a tribute to the community’s varied origins and rich cultural diversity. Through this artwork, we aimed to capture the unity, strength, and resilience within the community, serving as a sign of empowerment for those who contributed their brushstrokes to its creation!”
What an honor to celebrate this historic championship season as well.
