AAPI May 24, 2025

In celebration of AAPI Heritage Month, we were honored to be part of the AAPI Multicultural Festival held at the Cupertino Library. This time, our club set up the Pacific Islanders booth, and it turned into an interactive space where families and children could both learn and have fun. On one side, we let visitors draw images of what came to mind when they thought about the Pacific Islands, filling the paper with creative and colorful artwork. At the center stood our trifold board alongside a QR code introducing our club to any newcomers. The center also became a main attraction with colorful leis hanging and eye-catching tri-folds that allowed you to learn more about the Pacific Islands; a small yet important place in our plant. On the other side was our temporary tattoo station. People were allowed to choose from huge variation of vibrant tattoos to put where ever they wanted. The tattoos were a popular spot due to it's variety and playfulness. The whole day was filled with big smiles as visitors were able to not only visit our booth, but everyone else's representing different cultures and watch the stunning performances. Thank you once again!

Calabazas Jan 25, 2025

In celebration of the coming Lunar New Year in South Korea, we hosted a part 2 version of our cultural showacase of South Korea. Our event this time was held at the San Jose Library, another local library around our area. Because of the huge turnout last event, we had full confidence that this would be just as successful, if not even better. Thankfully, our expectations were met. Within mintues, children and families came swarming in, excited about this event. Constant laughs and smiles arose despite the smaller room with Kpop playing in the background. Despite the cramped space, everyone enjoyed theirselves and the fun activies led by our hardworking volunteers. We offered booth stations of folding ddakji and bok jumeoni, two popular visits by children. In the middle of the room, we laid out ggongi and jaegichagi for people to try and play as well. Our informational tri-fold boards were also standing against the wall, catching your attention as you walked into the room. All in all, thank you to everyone who came to our event and for bringing us much joy in our work. Thank you also to the San Jose Library for being such a great host. Catch you next time!

Cupertino Dec 1, 2024

On December 1, 2024 the CMC team held their first cultural showcase; showing the diverse aspects of South Korea. Boards were put up on tables for guests to read and learn more about South Korea. Across these boards, the team had different booths set up that guests could also do something hands-on. These booths included folding bokjeomoni's (a traditional korean handbag usually used to store money in) and ddakji's (a traditional korean toy commonly played with others). On top of these decorative booths, the team also laid out three traditional korean games inlcuding ddakji, gongi, and jjegi. Guests were able to let out their energy as they played these games with our volunteers help. To our team, this was a very successful first event as many guests came and expressed their interest in the culture of South Korea. Though the team was tired at the end, they all were proud of the work they had accomplished in spreading the culture of South Korea to the muliticultural world.
