We are excited about the start of 2024, and the return of the annual Lantern Festival here at the Arts Center.

Join us on Sunday, February 4 from 2-5 pm for the Lantern Festival celebration. Enjoy delicious Boba Tea (limited quantities), live performances, snacks and interactive activities as we usher in the Lunar New Year!

Lantern Festival is celebrated annually on the 15th day of the first lunar month to mark the grand finale of the Lunar New Year celebrations. It is also the very first full moon day of the New Year, symbolizing the coming of the spring. People light lanterns in their homes and in public spaces during the spring festival to symbolize “illuminating the future.” The Lantern Festival is an important part of the Lunar New Year.
