Dear FANHS-Sonoma Members,

I hope everyone had an enjoyable summer with the opportunity to take a vacation or “break” from work, school or whatever ongoing schedules and routines you may follow. 

Thanks to the continued support of you and our membership, we’ve been able to continue fulfilling the mission of our organization. Below and in the “News” section are some of the events FANHS-Sonoma has hosted and participated in thus far this year, as well as upcoming events in 2025. Salamat, Michael Viloria

Salamat,

Since 1992, the Filipino American National Historical Society (FANHS) has been celebrating October as Filipino American History Month (FAHM) across the United States. In 2009, the month was first recognized by the U.S. Congress, and in 2015, President Obama hosted the first FAHM celebration at the White House. We are pleased to share the official theme for FAHM 2025: From Quotas to Communities: Filipino American Migration and Movement.
