Celebrate Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) Heritage Month

Celebrate Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) Heritage Month as we honor the 2026 theme, “Power in Unity: Strengthening Communities Together.” This year’s theme highlights the importance of collective strength, storytelling, and building bridges that foster resilience and connection within AANHPI communities. Throughout the month, we recognize the history, culture, and contributions of Americans whose heritage spans the Asian continent and the Pacific islands of Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia through community events and educational programs.

Learn more about this celebration and its significance in our community and explore our Asian Life in America, a comprehensive online database that provides a record of the Asian American experience through news media, covering a vast events from the early 18th century to the present day, detailing the contributions, struggles, and cultural impact of Asian Americans across various aspects of society.
