The NYC chapter was formally established in 2019.
Me'a mai, afio mai, ni sa bula, haere mai, welcome

From the vast ocean of the pacific to the concrete jungle of the big apple, we are a small but vibrant group of like-minded Pacific Islanders who habitually congregate to engage in an array of social, educational and charitable activities.
We’d love for you to join us if you’re in the city.

“Millions of Moments of Pride” -
“the invaluable and countless experiences every person encounters during annual celebrations and commemorations around the world, The Pride experience is as unique as its participants, because it is unique to each participant.”

We will be collaborating with our members in July/August to map out activities for UTOPIA NYC for the 2019/2020. These will vary from fundraiser events, community workshops or social opportunities to volunteer, share and talanoa.
