Celebrate Cultures in Nature: Chinese Lunar New Year

**There will be no hiking portion for this activity, only the interpretive part with a craft and treat. This activity will be at most 1 hour long.**

Discover unique historical tales about the Irvine Ranch Natural Landmarks as we celebrate different cultures together! Each month, a different culture and celebration will be highlighted, with the possibility of the program presented in multiple languages which will allow for everyone to fully enjoy the beauty of the land.

This month we will focus on the Chinese Lunar New Year. Come explore how people who are born in the Year of the Dragon possess power, wisdom, honesty, kindness, auspiciousness, and success, just like those who enjoy the Irvine Ranch Natural Landmarks!
