Public lion dance performances are scheduled for Saturday at Uptown Mall and Elements Casino, while Nanaimo’s Beban Park Social Centre hosts a Lunar New Year dinner gala
Sunday marks the start of the Lunar New Year, but special events begin Saturday in Victoria and Nanaimo.
Students of the Wong Sheung Kung Fu Club have been rehearsing their lion dance routines in the weeks and days leading up to this important cultural event. The group is also set to be the main attraction Jan. 29 at an event to mark the new year, hosted by the Chinese Consolidated Benevolent Association, at the Gate of Harmonious Interest at the entrance to Victoria’s Chinatown.
Charlayne Thornton-Joe, a third-generation Chinese-Canadian and the museum’s visitor experience and facilities co-ordinator, said visitors on Saturday can taste lychee, an Asian fruit. The former, produced by Chinese Canadian Museum in co-operation with Victoria Chinatown Museum Society, highlights the history of Chinese Canadians in Victoria.
