Three years ago, Buqi 不栖 was born from scattered sparks.
Three years later, we shed our old feathers and take flight again with a new name — Apus雨燕 .
From California to New York, from Montreal to London, this flock of restless birds stitches their journeys into every page, calling for more diasporic voices to join in the murmuration of creating a magazine.
We invite you to join us for our first-ever in-person launch party in South Bay and San Francisco — a celebration of gentle rebellion, creativity, and community. 雨燕创刊号线下首发派对,邀请你来玩!
