Asian communities carry a legacy of resilience and strength, even in uncertain times. This year, we urge you to draw power from the joy rooted in your identity, heritage, and traditions — a force that empowers, inspires, and connects us.
Joy is more than an emotion; it’s a declaration of strength and a blueprint for change. When we celebrate our culture, we shape the future and light the way for others to follow.
We invite you to explore how your heritage and traditions guide you, inspire your vision for a better world, and create space for a future that is unapologetically ours. Through your creativity, let’s celebrate joy as a catalyst for empowerment and transformation. Together, we’ll amplify cultural pride and ensure our stories shine brightly.
Through your chosen medium — Visual Arts, Performing Arts, or Literary Arts — show us how your cultural joy is not only an act of resistance but also a foundation for something bigger: the blueprint for a brighter tomorrow.
This is your time to celebrate who you are, inspire others, and shape the future with your story.
