What is Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage Month?

Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage Month (AA&PI Heritage Month) is a university-wide celebration of the Asian American & Pacific Islander communities. While the month is federally recognized in May, the Office of Multi-Ethnic Student Affairs (MESA) and the United Asian American Student Organizations (UAAO) celebrate the month from mid-March to mid-April, with a diverse range of events that honour AA&PI history, heritage, community, and identity.

Throughout the month, events will be added to the list of events below that may not necessarily be represented on the graphic calendar! Please check back often for updates. All are invited to join us!

For questions about specific event information or in general about AA&PI Heritage Month, please contact MESA at (734) 763-9044 or via email at mesa.uofm@umich.edu. We are more than happy to help!
