The Power of Us: AAPI Trailblazers Gala 2026 is
The Serica Initiative’s premier annual gathering
celebrating the leaders, storytellers, and changemakers
shaping the future of the Asian diaspora in America.
Hosted at the iconic 583 Park Avenue in New York City, the
evening brings together innovators across business, media,
arts, philanthropy, and public life to recognize individuals
whose work expands opportunity, representation, and impact.
More than a celebration, the gala is a powerful celebration
of not only the honorees & Rising Star winners, but of our
growing Asian diaspora community. It reflects the belief
that progress is built through collaboration, shared values,
and collective action.
Funds raised during the evening support The Serica
Initiative’s mission of advancing the impact of the
Asian diaspora in America through storytelling, empowering,
and convening.
In 2026, the theme “The Power of Us” celebrates the strength
of community leadership and the transformative impact that
emerges when individuals come together to build a more
inclusive future. |
