RITUALS: Roots & Echoes Across the Diaspora

Rituals is an immersive celebration of art, music, and culture, bringing together AAPI artists, performers, and vendors to highlight the richness of the Asian American experience. Featuring a curated art exhibition, live performances, music, food vendors, clothing and jewelry artisans, and henna booths, the event creates a vibrant space where tradition and innovation meet. This year’s theme, “Roots & Echoes: Stories Across the Diaspora”, explores heritage, migration, and identity, showcasing the intersectionality of our stories and how culture shapes our sense of belonging. More than just an event, Rituals is a platform for underrepresented voices, a marketplace for creativity, and a night of celebration.
