Today marks the first day of Filipino American History Month 🇵🇭, a time to honor the generations of Filipino Americans whose contributions, histories, cultures, and stories have shaped our communities and this country.
As we celebrate Filipino American History Month throughout October, we’re also in the middle of Hispanic/Latine Heritage Month, creating a meaningful overlap between two months that honor communities with deep histories, rich cultures, and experiences shaped by migration, colonization, resilience, and community.
For us, this overlap is an opportunity to recognize the connections between Mexican and Filipino communities while honoring the distinct histories and traditions that make each culture unique. There is a shared history here, but also a shared sense of solidarity, identity, and connection that deserves to be celebrated.
That’s why we created MexiPino Fest. 🇲🇽🇵🇭
This Saturday, we’re bringing these communities together at Garden at the Flea for a celebration of Mexican and Filipino culture through music, dance, art, food, and community.
Scroll through to learn more about why we celebrate, and join us this Saturday, Oct. 3 from 10am–4pm. 🫶🏽
