Kick off Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month at MIX: Year of the Horse, a dance party highlighting Cleveland’s rich AAPI cultural landscape while echoing the horse’s spirit of strength, freedom, vitality, and high energy. Tonight’s event is cohosted and curated with Zosimo Maximo and APT345 Productions, a content, event, and curation studio creating elevated experiences in entertainment, wellness, art, and activism. The evening opens with Sidney Im, representing the Cambodian American Buddhist Association based in Elyria, Ohio, performing the Robam Chuon Por (Blessing Dance)—a traditional Cambodian dance performed at the start of ceremonies to welcome guests and bestow wishes for health, happiness, and prosperity. The night’s entertainment continues with a dance performance by LingYun Rising Star Gymnastics Dance School and Stellar Acrobatic Dance Academy, a fashion pop-up presentation with Fashion Talks Foundation, and house and techno DJ sets by SceneAmatiX and Zosimo Maximo. Themed food and drink items, including cocktails, beer, and wine, are available to purchase from Bon Appétit.
