With support from the California Arts Council, the Oakland Asian Cultural Center will hold its third annual Lunar New Year x Black History Month Celebrating Asian and African-American Solidarity. Free to the public, we will showcase dance and music from the Asian and African diaspora. Our partners Eastwind Books and Marcus Books will run a cross cultural children’s zone that will provide a story time, children’s books with solidarity and anti-racist themes, and an educational art project. We will also offer a marketplace where BIPOC artists and small businesses will sell food, art, and handmade products to the public. This event engages community members in cross-cultural exchange, developing cultural pride, and engaging in solidarity and healing that is grounded in a space that rejects racism, colorism, and xenophobia.
