The Chinese American Association of Commerce Foundation (CAACF), a nonprofit organization, is proud to present the inaugural Youth Talented Day in San Francisco’s Chinatown on August 8, 2026. CAACF is committed to fostering meaningful connections between American Chinese youth and the broader community by celebrating cultural expression and artistic achievement.

The event will feature three major categories of youth talent, including painting and calligraphy, dance and kung fu, and vocal and instrumental music. These creative avenues provide young people with opportunities to share their heritage, develop their skills, and build confidence in a welcoming public setting. Please email nancy@chcausa.org for more information.
