Cambodian American Partnership of Minnesota

Our story is one of resilience, hope, and pride. The Cambodian American Partnership of Minnesota (CAPMN) was born from a dream to preserve our heritage and keep our culture alive for all generations.

We are dedicated to preserving, celebrating, and sharing the rich cultural heritage of Cambodian Americans in Minnesota. Through arts, education, and community programming, we empower youth and families to embrace their identity, connect across generations, and keep our traditions thriving.

For many in our community, the stories, language, and traditions of Cambodia are at risk of being lost. Our mission is to change that by educating others and sharing our stories so our history and culture are never forgotten.

Every drumbeat, every dance, and every story we share is an act of preservation — a way to honor the past and inspire the future.

What We Do

Your support helps us continue vital programs such as:

• Youth Arts & Cultural Education: Teaching traditional Cambodian dance, language, and music to new generations.

• Community Festivals & Heritage Celebrations: Honoring Cambodian culture through events that unite families and neighbors.

• Educational Storytelling Programs: Documenting and sharing our community’s stories so they are never lost to history.

• Support for Artists & Storytellers: Encouraging creative expression and identity through art and storytelling.

Why It Matters

For many Cambodian Americans, cultural identity connects us to our ancestors, strengthens our families, and builds pride in who we are. Together, we can ensure that the voices, art, and traditions of the Cambodian community continue to shine brightly in Minnesota — today and for generations to come.
