Chinese Lantern Festival at The Magic House

As part of The Magic House’s Passport to the World cultural program series, it will host a Chinese Lantern Festival on Feb. 11.

During the Chinese Lantern Festival, lanterns symbolize good fortune and the release of the past in order to welcome the future. This time of year, many homes in China are decorated with lanterns, often embellished with riddles for children to solve. At the Magic House’s festivities, children and adults alike can create their own lanterns to celebrate!

While you’re here, don’t miss the new exhibition Children’s China, which opens on Jan. 21.
