Name: Hmong Veterans Memorial Day
Start: 2026-05-16T10:00:00-08:00
Location: Anchorage Veterans Memorial

We will gather in observance of Hmong Veterans Memorial Day. While there will be other activities for everyone to enjoy, it is important to remember that this day is not a celebration; rather, it is a time to honor the sacrifices of those who fought and to remember those we have lost.
This day serves as a reminder of our history, which we cannot erase. Instead, we have the opportunity to come together and reflect on what strengthens us today.
Additionally, there will be vendors from Pena Market present, as Pena Market will be closed on this day.
