Asian Pacific American Heritage Month 2024
31 Ways to Celebrate in May and Beyond, Presented by Regions Bank
This Asian Pacific American Heritage Month, join Asia Society Texas for 31 ways to celebrate the vibrant and diverse traditions and contributions of Asians and Asian Americans! Highlighting Asia Society's live programs, our calendar also features a curated selection of on-demand activities, staff recommendations, and more.
Since 1979, May has been a dedicated time to celebrate Asian Pacific American heritage, but it wasn't until 1992 that May was officially designated Asian Pacific American Heritage Month. Selected to commemorate the immigration of the first Japanese to the U.S. in May 1843 and the completion of the transcontinental railroad in May 1859 that was made possible by thousands of Chinese laborers, APAH Month elevates the stories, contributions, and experiences of Asian and Asian American communities.
Attend a live program, learn about local artists, expand your playlist, and find inspiration to celebrate Asian Pacific American heritage throughout the month of May and beyond.
