Mark your calendars and welcome the Year of the Sheep at Nevada City’s Chinese Lunar New Year Festival on Sunday, March 8, from 12-3 p.m. Mini-parade from the Chinese Monument on Commercial Street to the Robinson Plaza, where there will be entertainment, food, and exhibits. Bring the whole family!
Chinese New Year Festivals are rare in rural communities, and the Community Asian Theatre of the Sierra is proud to present this celebration, our fourth year in a row. The community parade begins at 12:00 noon at the Chinese Monument on Commercial Street (the old Chinese Quarter), led by ceremonial Lion Dancers from Eastern Ways Martial Arts of Sacramento. The mini parade entourage, which includes community entries, will make its way down Commercial Street and end at the Robinson Plaza where the Lion Dancers will spearhead an afternoon of Asian culture and entertainment. Food will be available for sale on Union Street.
