  2. How odd that this event is not being celebrated in RTC. You'd think with all the Asian restaurants and retail stores in the area, this would be the central focal point, rather than out of the way in a high school parking lot.

    1. RTS already has its own Lunar New Year event planned for Sunday.

      This Saturday event is much more performance-focused so obviously they need an indoor space in the middle of February. Last year's was at Fitzgerald Theatre. It was packed so I imagine they're going with the larger RHS space this year for that reason.
