Project poster

With the rise of gentrification in the Seattle Chinatown-International District, the intrinsic sense of community is slowly eroding. However, public interest in these local communities can spread awareness, which helps preserve the rich history found there. Wander is a website developed to amplify the voices of local restaurants and promote the cultural significance of Seattleā€™s Chinatown-International District. Not only will business owners get the chance to tell their stories about their food, but we hope that visitors will also be inspired to engage with and learn about the people at the heart of this community.
