Lunar New Year Celebration – Vanderbilt Museum and Planetarium

Join us in celebrating the Year of the Horse. Make a paper lantern, learn Chinese calligraphy, and create traditional good luck decorations. 

This is NOT a drop off event, youth under 12 must participate with an adult.

“Lunar New Year, or Spring Festival, is the most important holiday in China and is celebrated by billions of people worldwide,” said Beth Laxer-Limmer, Director of Education at the Museum. “It is a time for families and friends to come together to enjoy ‘lucky’ foods and hope for a prosperous future.”
