Celebrating Chinese New Year
Thursday, January 27, 2022 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM
To build bridges of understanding, we must take time to listen to the experiences of others.
Rolling Ridge launched "Voices and Stories" as an ONLINE series that uses historical education and contemplative listening to open hearts and minds to the events that have shaped American society today.
On February 1st, the Lunar New Year begins and ushers in the Year of the Tiger. Join us on Thursday, January 27th from 11 am to 1 pm as we share the cultural traditions and history of the Chinese New Year. From the Chinese zodiac and red envelopes, to the food, festivities, and family traditions, you will gain a deeper appreciation for the diversity in Chinese culture here in America, China, and Hong Kong. Brutus Lo, a long time friend of Rolling Ridge Director Larry Jay, will be our guest and guide.
Although there is no fee for this program, your generous donation allows Rolling Ridge to continue our mission and ministry of contemplative spirituality. Thank you.
Please check out our website for other events in our Voices and Stories series.
