Harvesting Brotherhood: Chinese Moon Festival in Mexico

In the spirit of bridging the perception of Chinese immigrants in our city and celebrating Chinese culture, this project will immerse our community in the organization and celebration the Chinese Moon Festival. Despite China being Mexico’s second economic partner, the city of Torreon is historically known for being particularly distant and even hostile to Chinese immigrants. Local children and their families will learn how to make and prepare Chinese lanterns, handcrafts, moon-cakes and other traditional food, and then spread their products with the general audience in a participatory festival full of art, legends, acupuncture and music.
