Year of the Dragon Lanterns

Central Library

Free

Sat, Jan 27, 2024

2:00pm - 2:00pm

FULL DESCRIPTION

Stop by the Octavia Lab to celebrate the Lunar New Year and assemble a festive lantern. Lab staff have designed a lantern that highlights The Year of the Dragon. The program begins with a demonstration of how the individual parts of the lantern are made. This is then followed by a hands-on, in-person activity where participants will assemble their own lanterns.

This special program is one of many at the Lunar New Year Celebration at Central Library.
