City of Memory
A story map of New York City
City of Memory is an online community map of personal stories and memories organized on a physical geographical map of New York City. City Lore who is behind this project requested one of my poems for Corona, Queens. However, poems and stories about NYC can be interactively added to this map!

Asia Pacific Forum
And the World Changed: Contemporary Stories by Pakistani Women — the first English anthology of Pakistani women writers — and Indivisible: An Anthology of Contemporary South Asian American Poetry — the first English anthology of South Asian American poetry — have one thing in common aside from both being firsts: Bushra Rehman. In addition to reading from her work, we’ll talk to Bushra about what both these anthologies signify, for her and for South Asian English literatures.

Union Station
Designed off the image of a train station with many tracks extending outward, Union Station has distinct urban aesthetic, that seeks not to be exclusive and attempts not only offer, but put into relation, the many narratives, images, and voices that are redefining our landscape.
