ALT sage green background, text reads "Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week (ASAW) is meant to spread awareness & acceptance of aromantic spectrum identities and the issues we face, as well as a chance for the community to celebrate our own experiences & existence. ASAW generally occurs the first full week (starting Sunday) following Valentine’s Day; it began in large part as a way for those in the aromantic community who had difficulty finding space for their experiences in such a universally romanticized event to come together and celebrate their own unique experiences. This week was first recognized from November 10th-17th in 2014, under the name Aromantic Awareness Week; in 2015, it was moved to late February, and the name was changed to Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week to be more specifically inclusive of all arospec identities. ASAW is currently managed by volunteers from Aromantic-Official, AUREA, and other members of the aromantic community. all info via arospecweek.org"
