“The Strategy of Togetherness” is an original piece in hand-cut paper, ink, and acrylic paint by Lauren Iida inspired by a photo of her Japanese American ancestors playing Chinese Checkers as a family circa 1939.

Urban Artworks with support from The Seattle Storm and Uptown Arts adapted her artwork into a vinyl wrap for a publicly displayed lower Queen Anne utility box.
