Joël Barraquiel Tan said the museum never considered canceling this year’s event, even after the tragedies in California. “No! We don’t hide. We don’t cower in fear,” said Tan. “We celebrate.”
SEATTLE — A Lunar New Year event kicked off Saturday in Seattle’s Chinatown International District.
As KIRO 7′s Gwen Baumgardner explains, the recent tragedy within the Asian-American community made the celebration bittersweet. Love and joy in 2023 are a stark contrast from the scenes out of Monterey Park, California, following a Lunar New Year celebration only a week ago. A gunman opened fire, killing 11 people and injuring nine more.
This is an event Cabenella looks forward to each year, but he said there was a significance to Saturday; a chance to display solidarity after a rise in violence against Asian Americans in recent years.
