Humboldt County Library and Humboldt Literacy Project invite families to explore Chinese heritage in a playful cultural journey with Kaeshi Chai in a Dragon Dance Family Literacy Party library tour!
Participants will have a dragon dance & parade, embody Zodiac animals, try tai chi moves, explore chopsticks, and hear the tale of the Nian Monster. Each participant will also be able to pick out a free book. This is a free library program.
