ARC World Festival: Where Asian Heritage and Celebrity Meet in Toronto

Toronto’s Kerr Hall is set to host ARC World, a one-day festival celebrating Asian heritage through food, art, and entertainment. Organized by the Asian Roots Collective, the event welcomes attendees from all walks of life to engage with both traditional and modern aspects of Asian culture.
A major draw is the celebrity basketball game featuring Simu Liu and Jeremy Lin, two figures who have made significant contributions to sports and entertainment. Their participation adds star power and excitement to the festival.
Festival-goers can expect to sample delicious Asian cuisine, explore innovative art installations, and hear from speakers who will share stories of resilience and achievement. The event aims to foster a sense of community and inspire attendees to make a positive impact.
Clement Chu, the event’s organizer, highlights the evolution of the Asian Roots Collective from a basketball club to a comprehensive community center. The organization now offers a range of programs, reflecting its mission to support and empower the next generation.
