🚶♀️Step into a space where you are understood—and where your story matters. Join us for our annual AANHPI Heritage Month CelebrAsian, proudly sponsored by I Matter!
This heartfelt gathering is planned by members of our Youth Leadership Collective (YLC) as a reflection of how they choose to honor their heritage and care for their mental health. It’s a celebration of the beauty, complexity, and power of AANHPI identities.
You will get to choose how they engage, with activities designed around what they shared helps them feel connected, centered, and at peace:
🌱 Community Knowledge Exchange – Reflect on how culture lives in your everyday life—through language, music, food, and more. Add your voice to a shared display and leave with a crowd-sourced collection of community recs.
🎨 Creative Expression Zone – Unwind with hands-on activities like painting, diamond dots, stamp making, or air-dry clay—a reminder that joy, play, and creativity are powerful forms of self-care.
🧘 Body Awareness & Snack Station – Enjoy a moment of calm through yoga or stretching, then build your own take-home basket of Asian snacks—because nourishment is part of honoring ourselves, too.
🍽️ Delicious food will be catered by AANHPI women-owned businesses:
Kids Table (Filipino comfort food: tofu pancit bihon, sinangag, vegan lumpia, pandesal)
Cakeheads (an assortment of cupcakes to satisfy every sweet tooth)
✨ Come as you are. Leave even more connected to your story, your power, and your people.
