Arts for Families: Chinese New Year Celebration
All ages welcome!
Celebrate the Chinese New Year at the museum! All ages are invited to join as we ring in the year of the monkey. Enjoy a fashion show of traditional Chinese dress, watch a calligraphy demonstration, and create your own dragon puppet. During your visit, take the opportunity to see the exhibition China: Through the Lens of John Thomson (1868-1872) during its final week at the museum. Co-sponsored by the George Washington University Confucius Institute.
This program is part of the museum’s Arts for Families series, inviting visitors of all ages to participate in thematic activities, demonstrations, and performances. Free; no reservations required.
