## Resource

ARC World is roaring back to Markham on September 12th, rekindling its roots with a vibrant celebration of Asian culture, featuring Simu Liu and Jeremy Lin. Liu, who even thought of Markham during his bachelor party, highlights the festival’s role in uplifting Asian Canadian youth through music, food, and a celebrity basketball game. Originally founded in 1995 to promote basketball for Chinese Canadians, ARC World has evolved into a powerhouse platform for Asian excellence. Both Liu and Lin stress the vital need for representation and role models, especially amid shifting societal narratives. Lin, a beloved Toronto figure, returns to champion the community, recalling the city’s unwavering support. Co-founder Clement Chu shares how seeing Asian success stories shaped his own path, and while more stars are on the way, the focus remains on community pride and celebrating Asian talent across all fields.
