Family Moon Festival

Uncategorized Download To My Calendar
Celebrate the brightest full moon of the year with the San Diego Chinese Historical Museum!

Each year, the Chinese celebrate the Moon or Mid-Autumn Festival on the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month.

It is a time to appreciate the bounty of summer, enjoy the full moon, and eat delicious mooncakes. Children in our annual celebration will help prepare these traditional treats, and children volunteers will help museum staff retell Chinese legends of Chang Er and the Jade Rabbit while the cakes are baking. Festivities will also include Chinese paper cutting, a calligraphy demonstration and the chance to sample mooncake and Chinese ice cream flavors. Reservations are encouraged.

Admission: $2

Location: San Diego Chinese Historical Museum,
404 Third Ave., San Diego, CA 92101
