   Why is Otafest a non-profit?

   • Otafest was started in 1999 by a University of Calgary students union club. After the founders graduated, they decided to keep the annual event running because of a lack of Asian representation in North American media. This led to Otafest becoming a non-profit society, dedicated to celebrating Asian culture, and it has stayed that way ever since.
