Earlier this month, we celebrated the holiday season with our community members during our Season’s Savory Greetings event, where we enjoyed Hmong food and cultural performances while connecting with one another over fun youth-led activities.

AANHPI middle school girls in Denver joined Asian Girls Ignite’s Coding in Bloom workshop, blending Hawaiian culture and coding to create personalized lei poʻo. Led by Zyola Moanaliʻa Mix, the event celebrated joy, identity, and self-determination. Participants connected through storytelling, creativity, and a shared Hawaiian feast. The day showcased the power of merging tradition with innovation.

Asian Girls Ignite students explored self-perception through beauty standards, social media, and friendships on a Denver food adventure, visiting AANHPI woman-owned spots like Banh and Butter, Tea Street, and Yuan Wonton. Discover the reflections and connections from this inspiring day!

In October, AGI hosted a Diwali Celebration for students to learn about the traditions of the holiday and to be in community with one another.

Recently, AGI hosted an “intro to sushmaking” workshop for middle school students facilitated by Executive Chef Mary Nguyen of Olive & Finch.

Recently, we co-hosted our first Sisterhood Outdoors event with Convivir Colorado.

AGI hosted an event for our middle school students, “Art from the Heart.” This event encouraged participants to express themselves and explore their identities.
