During Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, the Diocese of Texas gives thanks for the cultures, stories, and contributions of AAPI communities across the state. Throughout May, cities like Austin, Houston, Galveston, Tyler, and the Fort Worth area host festivals, cultural programs, and community events that celebrate this diversity and invite all to learn and participate.
This observance has been recognized nationwide since 1992, when May was officially designated as AAPI Heritage Month in the United States.
