THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELED. For the most updated information, please visit our A/PIA Heritage Month webpage.

To launch this year's A/PIA Heritage Month, the Opening Ceremony seeks to elevate and empower individuals in the community by spotlighting their artistry! The Opening Ceremony will consist of an open mic for poetry, singing, storytelling, and any other performance. Submitted art pieces by students will also be displayed throughout the venue.

This year's A/PIA Heritage Month theme is Patchwork. Your participation this night will be a valuable piece of the quilt that we call "community". The mic is open--we just need your voice! So bring your friends, have fun, and let's make it a night to remember! Come enjoy food and refreshments, be entertained, and share your talents on the stage!

This event is a part of Asian/Pacific Islander American (A/PIA) Heritage Month which is celebrated mid-March to mid-April at the University of Michigan. For a full list of events, please visit MESA's website.
