Throughout May, the WAVES Program coordinated a series of events and activities to celebrate AAPI Heritage Month, and we extend a warm invitation to all students, staff, and faculty of the Shoreline Community College family to join in. These events are not only opportunities for us to learn more about AAPI cultures but also to foster greater understanding, unity, and inclusivity within our workplace.

Here’s a glimpse of what’s in store:

  • Cultural Workshops
  • Guest Speaker Series
  • Film Screening
  • Celebratory Events

There are many more events happening on campus in May, so please look at the AAPI Heritage Month Calendar and save these dates! 

We encourage all to partake in these events and celebrate AAPI Heritage Month with us. Let’s embrace this chance to learn, grow, and appreciate the diversity that enriches Shoreline Community College.
