ArtsConnect’s ArtsCalendar is a work in progress. Presently, we are working with a small group of arts organizations from across the Tri-Cities to develop the ArtsCalendar before we open up submissions from all arts organizations and we are not accepting direct submissions at this time. If your organization is interested in joining the ArtsCalendar in the future, please email your name, address, and a brief description of your organization to: [email protected]
This resource has been made possible through the financial support of ArtsConnect’s members. If you would like to support the further development, please consider becoming a member here: Membership

Lunar New Year Celebration
Celebrate the year of the horse with us at Mackin House on February 7 from 12pm-3pm! Learn about Lunar New Year traditions through stories and songs with Yuto Books, with story time sessions available throughout the day in three different languages (English, Mandarin, Cantonese). We will also have English and Chinese books available from Yuto Books for browsing.
There will also be crafts available throughout the day, and various snacks and drinks to try out. Stop by our kitchen during select times to chat with community member Jessica Yue and learn how you can make traditional New Year snacks at home. Also be sure to visit our decorated photoshoot space upstairs and get a Lunar New Year photo taken by our staff.
