Make Us Visible Washington

A day full of connection, culture, and community 💛

We were proud to sponsor and show up for the AANHPI Heritage Month Celebration at Seattle Center on May 2, sharing resources and coloring books with K-12 educators and families. So inspired by the talent in our community. And an extra special moment meeting the daughter of labor organizer Larry Itliong, a powerful reminder of the legacy we carry forward.

Thank you APDC for bringing us all together!
