Enjoyed a lion dance performance by Jing Mo Dancers in honor of Chinese New Year 2013 at the Richmond library. The Chinese New Year begins on February 10th this year and it is The Year of the Water Snake.
San Francisco, CA.

We will miss our Chinese New year celebration because we are on our cruise. We had a great time last year.
Kathy says
Wow, the colors must have been amazing! Going to have to check out Philly’s Chinese New Year…you’ve got me interested now 🙂
Maggie says
What a great way to generate interest in their BIG full event coming in a few weeks. San Francisco is really one of the premier locations for a full Chinese New Year celebration. Do you know, when I moved to California I lived in the Richmond first. Don’t think I ever stopped by that library though – always SF main as I’d be downtown for work anyway. Great shots as always 🙂
Joanne Olivieri says
How fun. I have not seen that troupe before but I love CNY in the city, It is so colorful.
deborahpucci says
