Annual Ching Ming festival

Join us each year for the Ching Ming Jie festival, held on the 15th day after the Spring Equinox. This traditional Chinese festival is a time for families to visit and clean the graves of their ancestors. It is an important occasion for Chinese people to pay their respects and show gratitude to their ancestors for their contributions. Our festival is open to everyone and is an opportunity to experience Chinese American culture and history.
