May is Asian Pacific American Heritage Month, and there are many official events and tributes happening around the country to celebrate the contributions and achievements of the AAPI community. However, it’s also important that the activities we attend and media we consume throughout the entire year reflect a wide variety of experiences, including a diverse selection from the AAPI community. To that end, we have collected 16 books for children and teens that center the AAPI experience in different ways, but this is just a taste. Feel free to put your favorite books that focus on the AAPI community in the comments.
Waterford Is Blessed With Many Things..
Just one of those is the amazing food offering available throughout the city and county!
West Waterford Festival of Food is just one of the food festivals that has had to postpone their event this year however they have since developed Festival Spirit – a brand new event which runs from April 23rd-25th. Festival Spirit is a 3-day mini-series of virtual and physically distanced initiatives created to capture a sense of the famous festival.
This Friday on Drive Time with Aoibhin Fallon from 3-6pm, Aoibhin will be celebrating Festival Spirit throughout the show. She’ll be chatting to the organisers, some local producers and checking out some of the events that will take place over the weekend to keep the festival alive in our hearts, minds and appetites and to remind us that although things are different there is still so much that we can celebrate and enjoy!
