The Asian/Pacific Islander/American History Project of Greater Rochester (APA-HiP), founded in 2002, is a nonprofit corporation committed to collecting, documenting and preserving the history of Asian/Pacific Islander/Americans (APA) in Greater Rochester. In September 2003, it received approval for 501(c)3 non-profit status.
While we primarily document, preserve and promote written, oral and visual histories, we also promote communication and relationships between various Asian and Pacific Islander ethnic groups and help foster a sense of pride in belonging to the Greater Rochester community. Toward these goals, we initiated projects such as the oral history project (audio and videotaping personal historical accounts), documentary heritage project (surveying and cataloguing our community's historical documents), and establishing events to celebrate Asian Pacific American Heritage month in May, and other Asian festivals. We have produced an annual film series, a documentary of our own, various community photography projects, lectures, presentations, and video and photo exhibits.
