Join us as we we welcome the new year with cultural performances, community connection, and a festive evening hosted in partnership with EY.

This annual celebration is one of our chapter’s most cherished events, bringing together AAPI professionals, allies, and community partners across Orange County. While we are finalizing a few of the program details, attendees can expect a vibrant experience inspired by last year’s sold-out event—including:

• Traditional Lunar New Year bites from local AAPI restaurants

• Refreshments and boba

• Cultural activities and community engagement

• Raffles

• Live lion dance performance to bring prosperity and good luck into the new year

Beyond the cultural festivities, this event offers a unique opportunity to connect with the region’s diverse network of professionals from companies across OC. We look forward to celebrating together and strengthening the bonds within our community!
