“Throughout Asia, planters are common ways to add greenery in areas that have limited space. They contain the actions of a neighborhood that takes root even through hardship, along with the wishes of its community to flourish for generations.

These decorated pots not only highlight Asian cultural traditions but also reflect the creativity and resourcefulness of the Asian community itself. Each planter in this mural is inspired by real community spaces in Boston’s Chinatown — connecting today’s neighborhood to its history and heritage.

Can you guess which spaces they represent? ”
