Events › DIY Origami Dragon Boat Festival

Come to Calabazas Library to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival (端午節). This festival is a vibrant celebration of cultural heritage and traditions. Colorful boats race across the water as the rhythmic beating of drums fills the air. Families gather to enjoy delicious zongzi, play riddles, and cherish the bonds that bring them together. The Dragon Boat Festival falls on the 5th day of the 5th month of the lunar calendar, which varies every year. This year, the festival falls on June 10. Let's embrace the spirit of this festive occasion and honor the enduring legacy of the past. 

端午節，又稱端陽節、龍舟節、重午節、重五節、天中節等，是漢族的傳統節日，日期在每年農曆五月初五，是集拜神祭祖、祈福辟邪、歡慶娛樂和飲食為一體的民俗大節。端午節源於自然天象崇拜，由上古時代祭龍演變而來。祝⼤家端午安康！
