Northern Marianas College students, faculty, staff, and the community gathered to celebrate Pacific Islander Cultural Night at Mango Terrace as part of the 16th anniversary of the establishment of Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander-Serving Institutions or AANAPISI and commemorating our unique cultural heritage in the Pacific! This event showcased the beauty of our islands as we “color the world with cultural hues of the Marianas.” The celebration highlighted island cultures in Micronesia and the arts of the Marianas, as well as featured live performances, local favorites from food vendors, and cultural crafts from local entrepreneurs.
