The Asian Heritage Street Celebration is organized by the AsianWeek Foundation in cooperation with over 51 organizations in the Asian American community. The AsianWeek Foundation is a non-profit 501(c)3 committed to developing the Voices of Asian America. All proceeds from the Celebration will be donated to local and national charities.


The Third Annual Asian Heritage Street Celebration will be held on Saturday, May 19, 2007, in celebration of Asian Pacific American Heritage Month.

The festival will be located in the downtown South of Market area in San Francisco, on Howard Street between 5th and 7th Streets. Fairgoers are encouraged to walk, bicycle or take public transportation to the 3rd Annual Asian Heritage Street Celebration.
