Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month

Celebrate the voices and stories of Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) communities at the DIA throughout May in honor of Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month! The DIA partners with AAPI community groups and professional artists to showcase a blend of traditional and contemporary dance, musical performances, art, and more. This year’s celebration and performances include Chinese, Filipino, Indian, Japanese, Korean, Mongolian, Polynesian, Lao, Taiwanese, and Vietnamese cultures.  

Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage American Month programs are developed in partnership with the DIA’s auxiliary group Friends of Asian & Arts Cultures.

All programs are onsite and are free with general museum admission unless otherwise noted ($). Capacity for programs in Rivera Court and Marvin & Betty Danto Lecture Hall is limited. Seating begins 30 minutes before performance start.
