Hyphen, the Asian American magazine dubbed
"the oracle of Asian American culture" by the
San Francisco Chronicle, thinks its time we
honor and celebrate the Asian American men
in our community!

On May 19, activists, organizers and leaders
of various Asian American nonprofit organizations
will compete to earn the crown of the first-ever
Mr. Hyphen. Participants will compete in several rounds
including talent, fashion and Q&A and will be judged on
style, attitude, talent and dedication to the Asian American
community. The winner will take home a cash donation
of $500 from Hyphen for the nonprofit he represents.

Come out for a wild night filled with music, comedy and cat-walking.

they're representing:
