Autumn Moon Festival Gala

Screen Shot 2014-07-16 at 4.39.26 PMCelebrate the bounty of the harvest…the fullness of the moon…the myth of the moon goddess.

Inspired by the Legend of Chang’e, the Moon Goddess of Immortality, the Autumn Moon Festival is the second grandest holiday (after Lunar New Year) in China. Celebrated on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month, it is a chance for friends and families to come together, enjoy the harvest and to celebrate the moon, a symbol of unity.


Celebrate with us!
