Today is 元宵節 🏮 — the Lantern Festival — marking the end of the Lunar New Year celebrations.

Yesterday, we had a wonderful bilingual storytelling event for Lunar New Year! 🌙✨

A huge thank you to Cork City Library for having us and supporting this wonderful event!

More photos from last Saturday’s magical celebration in Alliance Française de Dublin @af_dublin ! 🐎✨

Why is the horse—and not the sheep—called Ma in Chinese? When did horses first arrive in China, and what roles have they played throughout history? Join Fangzhe Qiu for an engaging online workshop exploring the linguistic and cultural history of the horse in China.

To celebrate the Year of the Horse, and as part of the Dublin Lunar New Year Festival, Alliance Française Dublin and Cantonese in Ireland are proud to present a free family event bringing together literature, art, and language around Le Cheval Magique de Han Gan by famous Chinese-French contemporary painter and celebrated children's book author/illustrator Chen Jiang-Hong.
