“Culture As Site.”

Grab a Seat is a transnational cultural exchange project that merges Taiwan’s traditional Pantoh (outdoor banquet) culture with contemporary art, design,and place-making practices.By combining Taiwan’s approach to public space with the American moving truck culture, the project transforms mobile spaces into platforms for two-wayinteraction and dialogue.

Through the format of Grab a Seat, a mobile pantoh project, exhibitions and performances are set up in public spaces across New York City. Local artists, designers, and community members are invited to co-create and participate, fostering cultural innovation and international collaboration.
