18th Asian American Heritage Festival – free
Bring your family and friends to enjoy an afternoon of entertainment featuring experts in traditional Asian dance and song and masters of the martial arts, including lion dances. Professional artists share the stage with children’s dance troupes in colourful costumes and talented youngsters from local language schools. There will be plenty of activities for the children such as face painting, calligraphy, Chinese paper cutting, origami, and games.
This festival is also a showcase for local small businesses and non-profits, featuring vendors selling Asian-themed cultural artifacts and handmade goods, agencies offering educational and health services and restaurants cooking up a wide array of Asian foods, South Indian to Cantonese, for the hungry public. This festival is the largest Asian Pacific American event in the area and attracts as many as 7,000 residents to the Kensico Dam each year.
