Asian & Pacific Islander Americans in Historic Preservation (APIAHiP) is teaming up with Percent Pledge for a HistoryPin: East at Main Street workshop in celebration of Asian American, Native Hawaiian, & Pacific Islander (AANHPI) Heritage Month on Tuesday - May 20 at 9AM PT | 12PM ET on Zoom!

Event Description: This interactive webinar invites participants to explore the power of place in telling the stories of Asian and Pacific Islander American (APIA) communities. Through a live demonstration of the HistoryPin platform and a hands-on activity to map meaningful places from our own lives, participants will learn how to engage with historic preservation in accessible, community-centered ways. Attendees will also contribute by identifying significant sites and stories from their own cities and communities—especially those that are less known to the general public —helping to close the gaps between our rich heritage and the historic places that represent them.
