16 HOU Spots to Visit for AAPI Heritage Month

Written By Boulevard Realty

May is AAPI Heritage Month! It celebrates the remarkable culture, history, and accomplishments of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders. We would like to showcase some of the local businesses, organizations, and works of art in Houston that are deeply connected to the AAPI community. We encourage you to explore these local spots throughout the month and beyond. You'll not only experience AAPI culture but also contribute to the success of these businesses. Let's keep celebrating and supporting these fantastic establishments all year long!
