Dear Asian Avenue readers, We are excited to share the new logo for Asian Avenue magazine. With the help of the readers who took our 13th anniversary survey, we heard from you that a good icon to represent the magazine would be a leaf or tree, symbolizing how the magazine grows the community. So, drum roll please...
We would like to thank our intern, Chang Liu, a strategic communications student at the University of Denver for leading the charge on the reader survey and new design of the logo. You may have also noticed more activity and information shared on our social media outlets, also thanks to Chang. Last month, we hosted Polynesian Eats, a sold out event at Comrade Brewing. The night was catered by the food truck No Ke Aloha and featured a discussion about the impacts of climate change led by Allyson Goto. These monthly events are a great way to try various Asian cuisines and learn about topics affecting the Asian American community. We hope you get the most out of this issue featuring our London travel cover story, tips on how to plan a modern Asian wedding and Japanese-related books to read this fall. Enjoy!
