In honor of Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, join the Asian American Foreign Affairs Association (AAFAA) to celebrate the contributions of AAPIs to the United States at the DACOR Bacon House on May 19, 2022 from 5:30-9:00 pm.
This year’s event will include a cocktail hour and a silent auction featuring many local AAPI artists, including Rosemarie Forsythe, Nguyên Khôi Nguyễn, Losang Gyatso, Kalsang Pottery (NYC) and more!
Our keynote speaker will be Ambassador Chris Lu, Representative of the United States of America to the United Nations for U.N. Management and Reform. Chris previously served as U.S. Deputy Secretary of Labor, White House Cabinet Secretary, and Assistant to the President. During the Obama Administration, Chris also co-chaired the White House Initiative on Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders, as well as the Diversity and Inclusion in Government Council. The son of immigrants, Chris was only the second Asian American in history to become a deputy secretary of any cabinet department.
