Happy Lunar New Year and Tết! Today marks the start of vibrant celebrations around the world as communities welcome the Year of the Horse, the animal zodiac sign known for high energy, speed and independence.
Lunar New Year is celebrated across many cultures, including Chinese, Korean, Mongolian, Tibetan and other East and Southeast Asian communities, each with their own rich traditions and customs. It is also Tết, Vietnamese Lunar New Year, which is celebrated with prayers and meals with loved ones.
If you're celebrating Lunar New Year or Tết, COMMENT your plans! Later this month, MJHS will proudly march in two Lunar New Year parades—one in Flushing, Queens, and another in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn. When you see us, give a big wave!
