The City of Dallas in partnership with the National Association of Asian American Professionals just dropped the big news— they're spearheading the inaugural AAPI Heritage & Dragon Boat Festival. They're casting a wide net, looking for folks to jump on board and help out with the event, doing everything from supporting performers to manning the information booths.

According to the City of Dallas, the cultural extravaganza is set to transform the Bath House Cultural Center into a hive of activity on Sunday, May 19, from 10 in the morning 'til the sun dips low at 4 p.m. If helping your community while soaking in vibrant traditions sounds appealing, don't walk, or run. The event, with its colorful Dragon Boat races and lively displays of Asian American heritage, is poised to be a Dallas highlight. And the best part? It's free to attend, so you can expect a bustling crowd of locals and tourists alike.

Volunteer sales are already open for business. Those interested in applying their talents to this cultural smorgasbord can fill out a form faster than you can say 'dragon boat'. Getting involved means more than just doing good; it's a chance to get an up-close glimpse into the pulsating heart of the AAPI community's diverse tapestry.
