Get ready for the Mid-Autumn Festival at the Chinese American Museum DC’s annual Community Day on Saturday, September 20, 2025.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the most cherished holidays in Chinese culture! This family-friendly community day invites you to immerse yourself in the traditions and warmth of this moonlit festival.
Our celebration will light up with:
Live Musical Performances: Be enchanted by the serene and melodious sounds of traditional Chinese instruments. Let the gentle notes of the guzheng (zither), erhu (two-stringed fiddle), and pipa (lute) transport you under our symbolic moon.
Mooncake Tasting: No festival is complete without its signature treat! We will be offering complimentary traditional mooncakes for guests to savor. These rich, flavorful pastries symbolize completeness and family reunion.
Family Arts & Crafts: Unleash your creativity with hands-on activities for all ages. Craft your own brilliant lantern to light the night, design a festive decoration, or try your hand at other cultural art projects—a perfect way to create lasting memories.
This is a free event for the whole community to share in the joy and spirit of the season. Come together with friends, family, and neighbors for an afternoon of cultural connection and festive fun.
