Thrill or Chill... at the Chinese American Museum

Traditional Chinese Lantern Festivals mark
the culmination of the Lunar New Year...

(and although we are very far from China)

opportunities to celebrate
can be found all around
--------------------------------------------

The Gardner Family
"The Family w/ Teens"


This event is promised "rain or shine", but we were very
grateful for blue skies, as it literally poured the night before

Grab your jacket, it's cold out!

Annual Lantern Festival

Visit the vendors, watch the FREE show,
and make/decorate your own lantern


Grab a bite to eat (on Olvera Street) or at one of the food trucks
before popping into the Museum for a lesson in history and culture

Sun Wing Wo General Store and Herb Shop

Chinese American Museum

Journeys

a Permanent Exhibit focusing on Chinese immigration to the
U.S with an emphasis on community settlement in Los Angeles


If you could only carry six items on your journey
to a far-away, foreign land, what would they be?


The museum invites visitors to...

"Understand, appreciate, and share the rich cultural
legacy and continued contributions of Chinese Americans "


Upcoming...
