Join Asian American Organizing Project (AAOP) for an evening of reflection, connection, and empowerment as we gather to honor the diverse histories and lived experiences as Asian Minnesotans during Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. This event is designed to deepen our understanding of collective care, strengthen our ties to our ethnic, gender, sexuality and more multifaceted identities and communities, and affirm ourselves as vibrant changemakers in our collective future.

Through shared food, interactive activities, and meaningful conversations, we will explore what care looks like for us—individually, within our families, and as a broader community as we continue to exist and resist against this current administration's fascist and authoritarian agenda. What you can expect from this gathering and celebration are as follows:

• Sharing food with one another, opening dialogue about the ways care has been practiced, given, and received in our lives.
• Dreaming and imagining a collective future as Asian Minnesotans.
• Explore practices rooted in collective care, learning from each other and discovering ways to sustain and uplift our communities through intentional support.

So we invite you to join Asian American Organizing Project in our Asian Pacific Islander Heritage month titled, "Celebration of Us."
