Join Asian American Stories (AAS) for their Asian American Stories Award Ceremony, a celebration of the vibrant and diverse narratives of the Asian American community. This in-person event will take place on Thursday, May 2, 2024 at 5:30 pm PDT at HL Peninsula Restaurant in Milpitas.
The ceremony will celebrate those storytellers who submitted videos for the AAS Video Contest, "All of Us Belong Here," a powerful platform for Asian Americans to share their stories and redefine belonging. Be prepared to be inspired and moved by the powerful stories that will be recognized and honored at this special occasion.
A diverse panel of judges will select a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winner for each division (Adult & Youth). There will also be a Viewers Choice Winner per division, where a prize will be awarded to the most popular entry as selected by the viewers. Viewers can vote for their favorite video(s) daily thru April 15 at contestants.aastories.org.
