Join us to celebrate Asian Pacific American Heritage Month (APAHM)! We’re hosting three watch parties in May to celebrate the premiere of the new PBS series Asian Americans.

As America becomes more diverse, and more divided while facing unimaginable challenges, how do we move forward together? Told through intimate personal stories, the series “Asian Americans” will cast a new lens on U.S. history and the ongoing role that Asian Americans have played. Join us to honor our history and celebrate our community this APAHM: #RootedInCommunity #RisingTogether.
