Lunar New Year celebrations for Year of the Snake

by on Feb. 04, 2013, under Arts, Health, Life

2013 is the Year of the enigmatic Snake. Enjoy the Taste of China Festival/Celebration on Sat. Feb. 9 at the Tucson Chinese Cultural Center, 1288 W. River Rd.

According to a Chinese zodiac calendar I refer to, snake people are “quiet, wise, stingy, charitable to others, intense, passionate.” Sound like any “snakes” you know in your life? And they’re compatible with those born in the Year of the Ox and Rooster. Year of the Snake years: 1917, 1929, 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001, and 2013.

Celebrate again on February 16 at the Marriott Star Pass resort:

For more info on both events, call 520-292-6900, website www.tucsonchinese.org.

Happy Lunar New Year on Feb. 10, when the Year of the Snake begins.
