CHF has been busy this year, starting with Chinese New Year celebrations at Mall of America, Midtown GLobal Market and The Marsh.  We followed with three highly successful Sunday Teas at artist Paul Kwok’s studio: a lively discussion on the popular movie, Crazy Rich Asians; a presentation by photographer Wing Young Huie, and a presentation on Tea in China by Bill Waddington.  We also attended several events, an anniversary celebration at The Marsh where we presented founder Ruth Stricker Dayton with a roast pig, on this golden year of her birth in the Year of the Pig, and also attendance at a concert by the Beijing Chinese Culture Center, one of our grant recipients.
