Lunar New Year Celebration

Come celebrate the Lunar New Year with us in person! Expect loads of fun, traditional snacks, and vibrant decorations that bring the spirit of the new year alive. It's a perfect way to gather with friends, enjoy live performances, and dive into cultural festivities. Don't miss out on the excitement—bring your family and celebrate this amazing time of the year together!

The event kicks off at 11:00 AM at the Toy Building, 154 North Front Street, and the lively Pole Barn next door. Prepare for an action-packed day bursting with drumbeats from Taiko performers, dazzling calligraphy, Mah Jong showdowns, and chopstick challenges that’ll test your dexterity! By midday, the Lion Dance troupe will storm in with colorful costumes and ear-splitting gongs, parading down Main Street to bless local businesses with prosperity and keep those pesky bad spirits far away.

In the afternoon, settle in for a special screening of the locally produced film VOICES: CHINESE WOMEN OF THE DELTA, a moving tribute powered by the Locke Foundation and their Oral History Project. There is no charge for the screening, donations are welcome.
