Chinese New Year Celebration
Chu Ling, who founded Chu Ling Dance Academy in 1998, has been a performer and advocate for the arts for over 40 years. As a dancer, choreographer, producer, arts administrator and teacher, she has worked with multi-age performance groups on various types of dance. Chu Ling and her group of dancers are excited to perform various traditional Chinese dances, such as scarf dances and ribbon dances, and teach participants about Chinese New Year, explaining the importance of each type of dance. They will also teach participants to dance with them, giving them their own scarves or ribbons to dance with! This will be followed by the opportunity to taste traditional Chinese New Year foods, learn more about the holiday and socialize. Families of participants are welcome at this event–the more the merrier!
