Goal of the Activity

The goal of this event is to create an engaging and inclusive Lunar New Year celebration that fosters cultural exchange and community building among students and local attendees. Through traditional food, hands-on activities, and interactive discussions, we aim to provide an authentic experience of Lunar New Year traditions from China, Korea, and Vietnam. The event encourages social connections, active participation, and a lively atmosphere while ensuring smooth organization and logistics. Ultimately, we strive to leave a lasting impact by promoting cultural awareness, strengthening friendships, and creating memorable experiences that participants can take with them beyond the celebration.
