The Asian Pacific Islander Cultural Center (APICC) is partnering with Sunday Streets and Livable City to host the United States of Asian America Festival: Reimagining Horizons stage at Sunday Streets Tenderloin. Join us in the heart of San Francisco’s historic Tenderloin neighborhood for an afternoon of music, poetry, fashion, art-making, and performances celebrating the artistry and diversity of San Francisco’s Asian American and Pacific Islander communities.

These APICC artists will share the stage with talented, local performers proudly representing the Tenderloin, home to a diverse, pan-Asian immigrant/refugee community. Hosted by Peipei Ma'Bilz of the all-Asian drag troupe, The Rice Rockettes.

ABOUT THE ARTIST
Now in its 15th year, Sunday Streets is San Francisco’s open streets program with an annual season of events that reclaim car-congested streets for community health, transforming them into car-free spaces for all to enjoy. Event routes are 1–4 miles in length, with fun, free activities provided by local nonprofits, community groups and small businesses. Sunday Streets is a program of the nonprofit Livable City presented in partnership with the SFMTA, San Francisco Department of Public Health, and the City and County of San Francisco.
