Happy Lunar New Year! Lunar New Year, also known as Spring Festival, is a vibrant celebration marking the beginning of the new year on the lunar calendar. Each year honors an animal from the Chinese Zodiac; 2025 will be the Year of the Snake.
Originating from East and Southeast Asia, it’s deeply rooted in Chinese culture and celebrated by many Asian communities worldwide.
In the U.S., it’s a time to honor the contributions and heritage of Asian-Americans, bringing people together to celebrate family, tradition, and culture.
