Chinese New Year Party 2013
08 Feb 2013
On Friday, 15 February (6pm-8pm) at Academy 2, Students' Union, Oxford Road.
You are invited to welcome in the Year of the Snake at a special Chinese New Year party for staff and students of The University of Manchester and the Confucius Institute.
Celebrations will include a performance of traditional dance, music and martial arts. We'll be running lots of free activities to give you a taste of Chinese culture, including:
- Learn to write your name using Chinese calligraphy;
- Try your hand at traditional brain teasing puzzles;
- Find out what your zodiac sign is and what it says about you;
- Have your picture taken in traditional Han costume.
See how you fare at the Chinese New Year quiz, with prizes including two tickets to see the Chinese romcom You Are the Apple of My Eye at the Cornerhouse on 19 February.
There will be drinks on arrival and dim sum served after the performance.
This is a totally free event but we do ask that you regis¬ter your attendance so that we know how many to cater for!
If you are not a student or a member of staff and would like to attend, please send us a request and we'll try to fit you in if we can.
