The festivities included a taekwondo demonstration and traditional dances representing many of the Pacific island nations. At the conclusion of the ceremony, guests were treated to a free lunch of traditional foods.

"During Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month, we honor the perseverance of those who courageously reached for their hopes and dreams in a new land, and we celebrate the important impact the AAPI community has made on our Nation's progress," President Barack Obama, May 2015.
