Newton Chinese Cultural Festival March 11

The Newton Chinese Cultural Festival will be at City Hall on Saturday, March 11, from 10 am-2 pm, hosted by the Chinese American Association of Newton (CAAN), the Newton Chinese Language School (NCLS) and the Greater Boston Chinese Association (GBCCA). This event is supported by the Mayor's Office for Cultural Affairs, and it is the 3rd consecutive year the event will take place at city hall.

This year's theme is Chinese painting, which is one of the oldest continuous artistic traditions in the world. At the festival, you will learn the history and different styles of Chinese paintings. You will have a rare opportunity to watch Chinese artists painting close up and learn some basic painting techniques from Chinese painting masters.

You and your family can also enjoy traditional Chinese folk dancing, listen to Chinese folk songs and taste traditional Chinese food. For children, there will be many other activities like art crafting, face painting and games. We hope this will be a wonderful celebration of the Chinese culture with the Newton community. Please bring your family and friends along.
