Friends Gather for “Year of the Rabbit”
Aired January 26, 2023.
The Chinese Friends of Needham held a Lunar New Year celebration for the community to enjoy some food and fantastic performances.
The start of a new year always brings a measure of celebration, but this year in particular, the Lunar New Year needed something special to bring people together and create a sense of community. Locally, the Chinese Friends of Needham delivered such an event, bringing families closer and spreading joy, kicking off the Year of the Rabbit. Part pot-luck, part talent show, there was a lot to see, taste, hear and do. Yuxiao Yuan brings us highlights of the event.
