Lunar New Year at BAM

Come celebrate the Lunar New Year at BAM, with free paper cutting and red envelope crafting (11am – 2pm) and a dance performance by the Huayin Performing Arts Group (2 – 2:45pm).

Chinese paper cutting, also known as jianzhi, is a traditional art form where intricate designs are hand-cut from red paper. Participants will also be able to make and decorate their own red envelope, also known as hongbao or lai see. Red envelopes are usually filled with money and gifted to family and friends during the Lunar New Year, as a means of promoting good fortune and blessings.
