AAPI Heritage Month Logo
Publicity Partners are welcome to use the Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage Month logo in promoting San Francisco’s events and celebrations.

Other Versions of the Logo
While the full color logo is preferred, certain applications may require an alternate version due to limitations in media reproduction. The following versions are available for those situations.
Color & White
If it is necessary to place the logo over a dark background, use this Color Logo & White Text version.
Black & White
If your media is limited to black and white colors, use this Black & White version.
