The other important goal was to help nourish and promote long lasting friendly relationship between Pakistan and the United States. APPKI has introduced Pakistani culture to its American friends by organizing many cultural events including Eid Day Parties, Pakistan Day Celebrations, Charity Dinners and other cultural events that hosted several famous Pakistani celebrities and artists.

Crane House, The Asia Institute, Inc. opened in 1987 in the Old Louisville neighborhood near the University of Louisville. Its focus on China reflected the heritage of founder, Helen Lang, who was inspired to share her expertise and interest in Chinese cooking, history, and culture (the crane is an Asian symbol of longevity). In 1996 the organization expanded its programming to include all of East Asia and the following year, Crane House moved to its current location at 1244 South Third Street.
