Join CWRU to celebrate Lunar New Year 2019! Lunar New Year is the most important social and economic holiday for billions of people around the world!

CWRU honors this special holiday with a celebration featuring popular Asian snacks, giveaways for students and a fireworks display!

The event begins at 7:00 pm and the fireworks display will begin at 8:00 pm. Guests will be able to see the fireworks from right outside TVUC.

Lunar New Year is tied to the lunar-solar Chinese calendar and was originally observed as a time to honor household and heavenly deities and ancestors. Today, Lunar New Year is a special time to bring friends and family together for feasting and festivities in China, Korea, Vietnam, Japan, Mongolia and other countries all over the world.

2019 is the year of the Earth Pig. Pigs are considered to be diligent, compassionate, and generous with great concentration.
