We would like to warmly invite you and your family to join us in celebrating Cambodian Heritage Month at 2nd & PCH on Saturday, April 25, from 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM.

Background:

Cambodian Heritage Month is proudly recognized each April by the City of Long Beach (since 2018), Los Angeles County, and Orange County (since 2025) to honor the rich history, culture, and contributions of the Cambodian community. Through proclamations and community celebrations, local governments and organizations come together to recognize the resilience of Cambodian Americans, commemorate their journey, and celebrate their vibrant traditions. This month-long observance also serves to promote cultural awareness through parades, festivals, unity, and remembrance of the Cambodian genocide, while fostering appreciation across diverse communities throughout Southern California.”
