Indian-American Aarti and Chinese-American Mike Wang are organizing a Chinese-Indian meetup in San Francisco on May 24.
Named 'SF Chindian Meetup: Potluck in the Park', the intercultural couple is organizing what they describe as the city’s first gathering for “Chindian” families and individuals, aimed at creating a community space for people connected to both Chinese and Indian cultures.
Welcoming the both Chinese and Indian individuals, along with intercultural couples, mixed-heritage families, and anyone interested in Chinese-Indian culture and food.
The event is being planned as a family-friendly picnic and potluck and will include introductions, shared meals, games, and cultural activities.
Organizers said attendees are encouraged to bring snacks, drinks, and dishes reflecting their backgrounds.
Inviting people to attend the event, Wang said on X, "My wife and I are organizing a pop-up SF Chindian Meetup this Sunday (11 AM - 1:30 PM). Vibes: Potluck + dim sum energy. Bring your friends, parents, grandparents, kids."
He added, "I'll be bringing batch 3 of my mapo paneer experiments!"

The potluck event was born out of a question of missing spaces for Indian-Chinese identities and relationships. The duo remark that they often searched for families with similar experiences but found few community spaces dedicated to Chinese-Indian identities and relationships.
“We kept looking for other families like ours and not finding the room,” the organizers said in a statement announcing the event.
The gathering will also feature a “Chindian Trivia” game and discussions around family traditions, food, language, and cultural identity.
The organizers hope to cultivate a larger community network for Chinese-Indian families in the Bay Area.
