About:

A*CE (Asian Creatives & Entrepreneurs) is a collective connecting independent creatives and consumers with an emphasis on supporting emerging AAPI creatives and small businesses. We will be featuring over 30 unique vendors and artists, a digital photo booth, and sounds by DJ Poon. We hope you can shop, dine, & celebrate with us.

We aim to spread joy and inspiration by highlighting the diversity of our community, cultures, and changemakers - creating a physical space for everyone to experience authentic stories about the AAPI identity. We are part of the Asian Creative Festival, a special weekend program of AAPI organizations, speakers, talent, and community.
