MID-AUTUMN CHINESE LANTERN MAKING X CHINESE CULTURE WORKSHOP

PARENT-CHILD EVENT

Join this Mid-Autumn Chinese Lantern Making X Chinese Culture Workshop with us this fall! Learn to make a traditional Chinese lantern and celebrate an unforgettable Mid-Autumn Festival with your very own handmade paper lantern.

Traditional handmade paper lanterns are a lot of fun to create and make great decorations. Lanterns are an important part of Chinese culture – they were first used to light the streets of China, and today they are a symbol of a bright future. This festival aims to promote reconciliation, peace, and forgiveness. During the festival, houses are festooned with colourful lanterns, often with riddles written on them; if the riddle is answered correctly, the solver earns a small gift.

Join this workshop. Make an auspicious traditional paper lantern with your child and get to know more about this precious Chinese traditional craft and Mid-Autumn Festival culture!
