Happy 2026, everyone! We’re welcoming the new year with a hands-on textile workshop led by expert seamstress and beloved Chinatown elder Ms. Zhang, alongside community artist and friend Bev Ho.

祝大家2026年快樂！為迎接新的一年，我們將會舉辦手作工作坊。本次工作坊由裁縫師、摯愛的華埠長者張女士，以及社區藝術家、朋友何盈欣帶領。

In this workshop, participants will create their own small hanging wall scrolls with guidance from Ms. Zhang, who will assist with or pre-sew the textile components. You’ll then personalize your scroll using custom, handmade linocut stamps by Bev Ho, featuring traditional Chinese auspicious beasts, symbols of luck, protection, and prosperity. Each scroll will be uniquely yours, perfect for adding a meaningful and hopeful touch to your home for the year ahead.

參與者將在本次工作坊中向張女士學習製作屬於自己的小卷軸掛畫的技巧。張女士會協助布料的部分，或是會提前縫好布料。然後你將用何盈欣做的手工油氈印章畫來為您的掛畫增添中華四大神獸的圖案，它們是吉祥、守護與繁榮的象徵。每個卷軸將是獨一無二的，在新的一年為您的家增添一些有意義與希望的色彩。

All materials will be provided while supplies last. Once scrolls run out, we have red paper if you’d like stamp designs for a poster or couplets. Spots are limited, so be sure to RSVP through the link in our bio to reserve your place. Come craft, connect, and start 2026 with creativity and good fortune!

我們將會為您提供所有材料，先到先得。若卷軸用完，我們也有紅紙供您為海報或對聯創作印章畫。位置有限，請在IG主頁連結提前預定位置。一起創作、交流、以創造力與好運開啟2026年吧！

In the face of ongoing gentrification, it's crucial for us to unite in support of our Chinatown and DTES communities, honor our elders and their cultural heritage, and revel in the collective joy of artistic expression.

Through each Chinatown Together event, we are dedicated to backing grassroots efforts, amplifying the genuine voices of our community, reclaiming our cultural roots and safe spaces, and standing firmly united against encroaching gentrification. Celebrating community joy is our most powerful resistance to these forces - let's come together and celebrate in Chinatown as one!

您需要帶的東西：

- 飲用水以保持水分充足

- 一個袋子來裝您想要從林青華圖書館帶回家的東西

面對持續的市紳化，我們必須團結起來支持唐人街和市中心東區的社群，尊重我們的長者及他們的文化遺產，並享受藝術表達帶來的集體歡愉。

通過一次次華埠團結的活動，我們致力於支持華埠草根行動，擴大我們社群的真實聲音，尋回我們文化根源以及安全空間，並堅定團結起來抵抗逐漸侵佔我們的市紳化。

慶祝社區愉悅是我們對這些力量最強有力的抵抗--讓我們齊聚華埠來共同慶祝！
