Join us for our 4th Annual Harvest Moon Festival. Explore the artistic ways that China, Vietnam, Korea and Japan celebrate the mid-autumn full moon and the bountiful harvest through art activities, food tastings, performances, and film. Create a Vietnamese lantern, design and paint a Korean fan, sample delicious moon cakes, listen to traditional Chinese music and dance, and enjoy a screening of Studio Ghibli's animated film, The Tale of the Princess Kaguya. After the sun sets, join the Sidewalk Astronomers for outdoor moon-gazing. Galleries are open all night. Good fun for the whole family!
