Sunnyside Post: Queens Running Groups to Celebrate AAPI Heritage Month With 3-Mile Event Saturday

A number of Queens-based running groups will be coming together in Sunnyside Saturday to host a 3-mile run to celebrate Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month.

The run will begins at noon at Bliss Plaza (46th Street/Queens Boulevard) and will end at Diversity Plaza in Jackson Heights. The participants will run along 39th and 34th Avenues– both “Open Streets”—to avoid vehicular traffic. There will also be a walk that attendees can join.

Among the confirmed speakers are Julie Won, a candidate for city council in District 26, Paz Tanjuaquio, a co-founding director of the performance arts non-profit TOPAZ ARTS as well as Jose Miranda Jr.
