What is Lunar New Year? The Lunar New Year season lasts from February 9^th to February 24, 2024. It is a holiday observed by 20% of the world’s population, yet many are unfamiliar with how it is celebrated. Educator Yvonne Wolf will tell us about the Chinese calendar in relation to the Chinese New Year, the rites, activities, symbols, and foods associated with it and how you can participate in your own home. Whether it is your first time celebrating this cross-cultural festival or part of your annual routine, join us as we welcome the Year of the Dragon.
