Get ready to usher in The Year of the Snake at Austin’s annual Lunar New Year celebration on Feb. 2 at The Paper + Craft Pantry (1023 Springdale Road).
This family-friendly event boasts a vendor market pop-up with original art, food, books and more made by local Asian small businesses.
Watch as authentic Lion and Dragon dances, symbolizing good luck and prosperity in Chinese culture, unfurl in the streets to usher in prosperous times and drive away evil spirits.
Enjoy interactive activities for kids of all ages, and feast on lucky foods from dumplings and egg rolls to longevity noodles.
