Common Roots: Festival for Asian Pacific American Heritage Month
Event Navigation
May 21 @ 1:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Free
Let’s celebrate Asian Pacific American Heritage Month (APAHM) together at NC Asian Americans Together’s second annual festival. We’ll have Asian artists, a vendor market, performances, food, and more. This event is FREE and welcomes all ages. It will be held outdoors at Durham Central Park from 1pm – 8pm. RSVP for event updates at ncaat.org/CommonRoots.
This year’s theme, Common Roots, calls to mind the unique journeys and contributions of the many diverse communities across Asian and Pacific Islander diasporas, while highlighting the beauty we create together as we forge connections across backgrounds and generations – just as every individual root of a plant shares in nourishing each leaf and branch, so the entire being thrives.
If you’re interested in performing, vending, displaying your art, hosting an activity, or sharing an installation, please let us know at the bottom of the RSVP form and we’ll be in touch. If you’re interested in sponsoring this event, please reach out to [email protected]. We look forward to celebrating with you!
