Chinese New Year or Spring Festival is the most important traditional Chinese holiday. It is also an important holiday in East Asia. This coming new year is the Year of Tiger. The lunar new year falls on the first day of the first moon (lunar month) and is February 14th in 2010.
 

On this day, Saint Mary’s College is going to hold the second “China Night Program” to celebrate the holiday with the whole community. Our students and local community members will perform Chinese dances, music, plays, fashion shows and so on to create a happy holiday atmosphere. The China Summer Program students will showcase their study abroad experience in China. All children and students at the event will be presented with red envelopes, which is a tradition during the Chinese new year celebration.

There will also be some fun interactive activities on campus introducing Chinese culture, including Chinese papercuts and old photos exhibit in the library. Traditional Chinese food will be served at the dining hall that day and at the reception after the evening show.

Admission is free, all are welcome
