We were amazed by how much love there was for Taiwan in our community at the Irvine Global Village Festival!

Thousands of people attend this festival each year, which celebrates different cultures and their cuisine and art for people of all ages. TAP-OC had a booth in the Cultural Exhibits.

 

 

 

 

 

Our booth promoted the Write In Taiwanese Campaign for the 2020 Census, to check ✔️ ‘Other Asian’ and write in “Taiwanese” ✍?. People also had the opportunity to learn more about the census.

People also wrote down what makes them Taiwanese & what they love about the island. We had a large Taiwan cut out poster where people wrote on sticky notes and shared their story/love.

 

 

 

 

 

 

We also had quite a variety of hands-on activities at our booth such as calligraphy, fun trivia, yummy tastings of Taiwanese style beef jerky and green tea cookies, and different photo ops with our props and aboriginal costumes for fun ways to experience our culture!

 

 

 

 

 

Thank you for everyone who stopped by to learn more about TAP-OC and our Taiwanese culture hope you all had fun and enjoyed sharing what it means to be Taiwanese with us!

With the success of our booth, we got featured in World Journal! Check out the article here.
