Participants will also be able to find their Chinese zodiac signs. The traditional celebratory lion dance and martial arts demonstrations are scheduled throughout the afternoon. Experts will lecture on Feng Shui, the ancient Chinese art of design and placement and Tai Chi, a Chinese martial art. Several activities are planned for children. They will make a fish wall hanging, solve a zodiac word puzzle and learn a mini-dragon dance.
Children can also learn how to use chopsticks and make paper lanterns.
Some participants will dress in historical costumes. The program is free and open to the public. Traditional Chinese food will be provided at a small charge. The event is funded by an Ethics and Leadership Grant from Wake Forest.
