Asian, Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) Heritage Month is celebrated every May as a time to honor the rich histories, diverse cultures, and remarkable contributions of AANHPI communities across the United States.

Join us this May as Gonzaga recognizes and celebrates the generations of Asian, Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander individuals who have shaped America’s past and continue to influence its future. Gonzaga is co-sponsoring a series of events celebrating the AANHPI community throughout the month, including visiting authors, art shows and film screenings, all built around the theme of “Echoes: Letters for New Tomorrows.”
