A monthlong celebration of Lexington’s Asian American-Pacific Islander culture kicks off Friday evening. This is a follow-up to an inaugural celebration last year.
There were a couple of AAPI events in the Lexington area in 2023. Lexington Vice Mayor Dan Wu said this year there are weekend activities planned throughout May. Wu said for what he considers a very diverse multicultural community, there hasn’t been a lot to reflect the culture, values, and arts of Asian American-Pacific Islanders out in the public sphere in Lexington.
