Sunday (1/25) from 10am-4pm, the Brooklyn Botanical Garden is hosting the 3rd annual Lunar New Year Celebration and Flower Market celebrating the New Year traditions of China, Korea and Vietnam.

Between the plentiful plants in BBG’s Asian collections thought to bring wealth and good fortune (which will be highlighted on tours in both English and Mandarin) and those available at our flower market for purchase, visitors will undoubtedly leave the Garden on Sunday a bit luckier than they were when they walked in.
The event also has dazzling performances by Qi Shu Fang Peking Opera and DVL Vietnamese Dance, and great hands-on workshops for all ages (qi gong, potting up a lucky narcissus, etc.), plus an all-new program of interactive storytelling of Korean and Vietnamese folk tales. . .so there’s plenty beyond the plant element, too.

For more information and directions, visit the Brooklyn Botanical Garden site.
