San Francisco's QTAPI Heritage Week returns for the fifth year, bridging Asian Pacific Islander Heritage Month and Pride Month. Established in 2021, this celebration emerged from responses to rising anti-Asian violence, focusing on cultural celebration and community activism. With the theme 'QTAPI Tapestry,' the event showcases interconnected identities within the QTAPI communities. Organizers, in partnership with Castro Art Mart and the SF Office of Economic and Workforce Development, aim to connect community members and organizations, culminating in a Block Party on June 1 that highlights shared histories and ongoing contributions since the 1980s.
QTAPI Week celebrates the resilience and unity of Queer and Trans Asian & Pacific Islander communities, highlighting the strength of diverse identities and experiences.
The theme 'QTAPI Tapestry' symbolizes the intricate connections within queer and trans individuals of Asian and Pacific Islander descent, reinforcing community strength.
