Join us for a pleasant evening to celebrate the cultural fabric of the Filipinx/a/o community and diaspora in Santa Barbara County. By celebrating together with food, music, vendors, art, and storytelling, we including myself as a Filipinx/a of Tagalog descent create belonging not only through our shared experiences but also to honor the unique aspects of each other’s experiences. Let us claim, appreciate, and love the parts of ourselves that demonstrate our Filipinx/a/o identity.
While AKO ITO centers the Filipinx/a/o diaspora, we welcome any person who genuinely wants to participate, learn, and show up in support. Click here to register for this event.
