San Diego Chinese New Year Fair

Every year, our neighbors at the Chinese Consolidated Benevolent Association host a street fair in celebration of the Chinese Lunar New Year, which takes place on Third Avenue, where we're located in downtown San Diego.  This year, the 40th Annual Chinese New Year Fair will take place on February 4-5.  During the fair, we'll open our facilities to the public in exchange for a suggested donation (rather than an $8 admission fee).  In our garden, our friends at the SDSU CCC will hold a calligraphy activity, where participants may learn to write their name in Chinese characters:

At the museum, we'll also have a select number of items that were recently deaccessioned from our collection available for sale. 

Please stop by if you'll be in downtown this weekend.
