Something I’ve been working on behind the scenes is the graphic design and marketing for the 2025 Eau Claire Hmong New Year.

If you’ve seen the colorful flyers floating around, that’s part of what I’ve been creating. It feels good to bring new energy into this celebration after Covid put everything on pause. Just last year, the committee restarted at a brand-new location and welcomed over 4,000 people back together.

This year’s committee feels especially fresh and promising. It’s led by Cheng Cha (owner/partner of Thai Orchid) and supported by a group of dedicated professionals—most of us volunteering our time to make this year’s celebration meaningful.

Aside from the flyers, I also designed the website 👉 www.EauClaireHmongNewYear.com
…as well as the Sponsorship Package that reflects where we’re headed. You can view it here: www.eauclairehmongnewyear.com/sponsorship

👉 How to support right now:
▪Purchase a Pho-raiser ticket ($20), redeemable at Thai Orchid Restaurant until December 31st. Tickets are available online or locally at Amerasian Market & Thai Orchid: Buy Here: https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/pho-fundraiser-2

▪Enter one of our open competitions (www.eauclairehmongnewyear.com)

▪Follow for the latest updates—lots of exciting announcements are coming as we head into September!

I’m really proud to share this work with you. Without further ado, here are some of the graphics I’ve been creating to support the Eau Claire Hmong New Year.

If you or your organization is interested in sponsoring the largest Hmong celebration in the Eau Claire region, please reach out—we’d love to connect with you.

Thank you for following along and supporting! ☀

I’m beyond thrilled to introduce Hlub, a handmade Hmong paper doll designed to celebrate identity, creativity, and culture. She’s finally here — and now available to order online!

✨ The Spark of an Idea ✨
The idea for a Hmong paper doll came to me years ago during a visit to a local museum. After a full day of wandering through inspiring exhibits, I stopped by the gift shop. I browsed through shelves of thoughtfully curated treasures—local jewelry, art books, puzzles, games, and more.

But something was missing.

In a city with a vibrant Hmong community, I couldn’t find anything fun, meaningful, or collectible that reflected Hmong culture — something both kids and adults could relate to and enjoy. That’s when the idea for a Hmong paper doll was born.

And now, after years of dreaming and creating — Hlub is here.
