New York City’s seventh annual Immigrant Heritage Week begins today. The initiative is organized by the Mayor’s Office of Immigrant Affairs, “to celebrate the contributions of immigrants and the diversity that makes New York City so great. This year there will be over 170 fun and free events in all five boroughs with something for everyone from musical performances, film screenings, events for children and the whole family, workshops and discussions, and much more.” A full schedule of events is online here.
If you’re lucky enough to be an LGBT immigrant, head on down to New York’s LGBT Community Center on Tuesday, April 20 for the 2nd Annual LGBTQ Immigration Fair and Cultural Event. Immigration Equality is one of the event sponsors, and it will be a great afternoon of information and entertainment, plus free, confidential HIV testing. More info here.
