Celebrating our diverse heritage. Thank you APIA Professional Network for your support.
Happy Asian Pacific Islander American (APIA) Heritage Month! Much gratitude goes to the Port of Long Beach for sponsoring our celebration and to PowWow Pizza Company for donating a gift card for our raffle. Thank you Aunty Fran Lujan for allowing us to celebrate with you at the Pacific Island Ethnic Art Museum. And thank you to everyone for attending! Please make sure to come back and visit the museum.
It's the last month to see our current exhibit, "Island Ink: Tattoo Traditions of the Pacific".
"Throughout the Pacific, Islanders are making the ultimate commitment to their cultural heritage and embedding it in their skin. Oftentimes the designs follow the norms set centuries ago, but both culture and art are dynamic and ever-evolving. The tattoos of today exhibit great creativity commonly referencing the old style while simultaneously representing the modern day individual."
