Find Your Spark: Celebrate the Year of the Snake with Joy and Connection

Jan 22, 2025

Join us at the Calgary Chinese Cultural Centre on January 25-26 and February 1-2 for a celebration that promises to enlighten, engage, and inspire. As we welcome the Year of the Snake – a symbol of strength, fortune, and wisdom in Chinese culture – we’re creating a space where traditional celebrations meet contemporary community connection.

Throughout both weekends, visitors will be treated to an array of authentic performances that bring centuries-old traditions to life. But this celebration goes beyond spectacle – it’s about active participation and genuine connection. Engage with interactive workshops and enjoy a festive Dragon Dance and Lion Dance. These hands-on experiences offer more than just entertainment; they provide windows into cultural practices that have enriched communities for generations.

Community lies at the heart of every Spark Group initiative, and this celebration is no exception. Local cultural groups, artisans, and community leaders have come together to create an authentic experience that honors tradition while building new connections.

As we step into the Year of the Snake, we invite you to be part of this meaningful celebration. Whether you’re deeply familiar with Chinese New Year traditions or experiencing them for the first time, there’s a place for you in this community gathering. Together, we’ll create moments of joy, discovery, and connection that embody the true spirit of cultural celebration.

Join us at the Chinese Cultural Centre for this unique celebration. Each spark of connection, each moment of discovery, contributes to a brighter, more understanding community. Let’s welcome the Year of the Snake together, creating memories and connections that will last throughout the year ahead.
