THSH has held or co-held several events including Sky Lantern Kite, Arts Project Grant Award, Asian American Festival, and Asian American Festival over the last decade. For example, the Lantern lighting is a folk tradition in Taiwan. Besides indoor lanterns, people also release lanterns over rivers and into the sky. Before launching these lanterns, they write wishes on them. When they light the fuel in the lantern, heat lifts it up into the night sky.
Together, they watch their words glow—a constellation of hope. Click here to learn more. |
