North Dakota becomes a much richer place to live in when artists freely share their creations with their friends and neighbors.

Whether an upcoming event will showcase Asian-American artists’ music, dance, fine art, cuisine, or any combination of their cultural traditions, you are certain to enjoy sharing their passion and their heritage. Check this page often to learn more about the special events we have planned, as well as to receive important news and updates about our non-profit organization.
