Celebrate Community Pride, Panel + Queer AAPI Night Market

  • Welcome to Chinatown 115 Bowery New York, NY, 10002 United States (map)

Come celebrate AAPI Queer Pride in Chinatown! 🏳️‍🌈

Join us for a two-part event hosted at Welcome to Chinatown’s Hub! We’ll be hosting a panel in the afternoon with Lauren Chan, Gerrie Lim, Haoran Chen and Jackie Wong. At night, come back for a Mahjong Party hosted by Gaysian Tile Club + shop from Queer AAPI vendors!

Walk-ins are welcomed but we will be prioritizing ticket holders if we hit space capacity. These are two separate events - if you’d like to attend both (yay!), please RSVP for each separately.
