The Kylyn Arts and Culture Festival is a multi-day inaugural arts festival that aims to enrich the cultural life of Ann Arbor and establish the city as a central hub for presenting the cutting edge of Midwest AAPI Arts and Culture. The festival features a diverse lineup of artistic, cultural, and educational programming that engages the public and encourages dialogue around important social issues.
The festival provides a platform for AAPI/BIPOC artists to showcase their creativity and talent, integrating local arts resources and highlighting the rich and diverse interdisciplinary arts community in Ann Arbor, Metro Detroit, and beyond. The festival also features a variety of educational and community-building activities, such as workshops, panel discussions, and performances, that engage the public and foster a greater understanding of AAPI culture and experiences.
The Kylyn Arts and Culture Festival is a unique and important event that celebrates the vibrancy and diversity of the AAPI community and promotes cross-cultural understanding and collaboration. It is a testament to the power of the arts to bring people together and create positive social change.
