On May 2nd, come to Old Town Chinatown to celebrate Asian American Native Hawai'ian Pacific Islander Heritage Month with free admission to Lan Su Chinese Garden from 12 pm to 6 pm. There will be cultural performances every hour from different cultural groups.

Other cultural institutions in Old Town - the Portland Chinatown Museum, Japanese American Museum of Oregon, and Oregon Jewish Museum and Center for Holocaust Education - will be open for Pay As You Will admission.

So, save the date - May 2nd - and join us for a day of celebration and immersion in Oregon's rich diaspora of AANHPI communities. We hope to see you there!
Thanks to Calyx Design and their excellent design skills, we have a t-shirt available for purchase at their website. Designed as an ode to the Portland Frog and Oregon's Japanese American community, our Portland kaeru shirt is about not giving up the fight against fascism and hate.

Hate spreads quickly when there is nothing to stop it. Whether it's the rise in the anti-Asian hate fueled by bigotry during the COVID-19 pandemic, or anti-Muslim hate catalyzed by the conflict in Gaza, communities of color in America are experiencing hate now more than ever.
Our communities are living in fear and only we can stop it. Oregon Rises Above Hate is a collective of multiethnic and multiracial businesses, organizations and activists who are motivated to stop bigotry, racism and violence in our community.
Our mission is to promote May as Asian American, Native Hawai'ian and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) Heritage Month and work to uplift the events of all AANHPI community groups. We want everyone in our community to feel safe, seen and respected.
