The Asian Celebration, a cultural festival in Eugene, Oregon, from its beginnings in 1986 as a small gathering to its current status as a major community event. Initially an indoor winter festival, it adapted to the COVID-19 pandemic by becoming an outdoor summer event, merging with the Japanese Obon & Taiko Festival. This partnership, now held annually in July, continues the original mission of celebrating Asian and Asian American heritage, fostering understanding, and building community connections. The festival relies on extensive volunteer participation and community support, showcasing diverse aspects of Asian cultures through various performances, exhibits, and activities.
The Oregon DesiFest, a free festival (except for a ticketed performance) celebrating South Asian diaspora. Its mission is to elevate hidden and emerging histories of the diaspora through arts and humanities.

Four core values—Creativity, Diversity, Solidarity, and Community—underpin these goals, ensuring inclusive and collaborative efforts to challenge stereotypes and inspire change. The text also highlights the festival's commitment to using donations to further its mission and vision.
