The Asian-American Native Hawaiian Pacific Islander community will move into the Stutz complex next month.

Patrick Armstrong, an Indianapolis-based podcaster and storyteller, mentions that this gathering will unite the AANPHI community for forming fresh connections and boosting local enterprises. He adds that the community market will highlight talents and business ventures from within their group.

Armstrong states that this event is unprecedented for Indianapolis and invites families to participate. He notes that the market will feature an array of vendors ranging from candle artisans to a boba tea store, providing a platform to highlight numerous small business proprietors. Armstrong emphasizes, “This initiative aims to foster a sense of community and ideally lend support to these local enterprises.”

The marketplace also aims to provide members of the AANPHI community an opportunity to connect with one another and share their experiences. Armstrong emphasized a rapid networking event designed for participants to forge new friendships within a quick-setting atmosphere.

In the end, Armstrong expresses his desire for vendors to exit the event feeling satisfied and capable of building enduring connections as well as fostering a more robust sense of community.

The AANPHI community market will take place at the Stutz Business and Art Center on May 4th between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m.
