Join Us For a Night Celebrating Pan-Asian American Culture and Businesses

You are cordially invited to join the USPAACC Southeast as we celebrate our 2nd Annual DiA Awards Gala. Please join us at this black-tie event Saturday, October 27th, 2018 at the Georgia Aquarium. This will be an evening dedicated to recognizing small businesses and the contributions they've made within our community. We will also award scholarships to five deserving and bright students.

Come out and mingle with over 300 unique businesses at our pre-dinner cocktail party with light fare and an open bar. Enjoy a delicious 4 course dinner prepared by renown chef Wolfgang Puck, the aquarium's preferred caterer. We'll have lots of desirable silent auction items and special surprise performances throughout the night. It will be an evening to remember!
