Students join in Vietnamese festivities for Lunar New Year
|Many students have heard about the Chinese New Year, but the Vietnamese and other cultures also celebrate the Lunar New Year, which is the beginning of a new year based on the lunar calendar.
On Jan. 29, Mason’s Vietnamese Student Association celebrated the Lunar New Year with cultural food, traditional games and New Year’s crafts.
The Vietnamese New Year, or Tết, is an important cultural holiday to Vietnamese families which typically involves three days of celebration.
