30th Annual Autumn Moon Festival goes virtual
About
In its first-ever attempt at executing a virtual event, the organizers hope to present a web experience that captures the similar energy and excitement of its physical festival.
The event will be co-hosted by a dynamic pair: Crystal Lee, a former Ms. Chinatown, who now works for the Golden State Warriors and Dennis Woo, recent USC graduate, currently employed at Cisco as a Project Manager. Both performed in their youth at the Autumn Moon Festival.
The festival will include greetings from San Francisco Mayor London Breed, Supervisor Aaron Peskin, Assessor Carmen Chu, Assemblyman David Chiu, well known actress and director, Joan Chen and columnist, Ben Fong Torres.
A cast of talented performers including jazz pianist Jon Jang, Trace Elements, and Lily Cai Chinese Dance Company, will captivate the audience with showy dances and lively music. Special guest appearances include Kenny Bee and Alice and the Wave. The program will conclude with the famous and highly anticipated lion dance performance.
