San Diego, CA — December 14, 2024 — The San Diego and Riverside Chapters of the Formosa Association of Student Cultural Ambassadors (FASCA) came together for a lively and memorable winter party hosted by FASCA-SD at the Harvest Evangelical Church of San Diego.

The results were both visually stunning and delicious, embodying the collaborative spirit of the day.
