Join VietAID on Saturday, October 14th, for a fun afternoon! In Vietnamese tradition, this occasion is a gathering of family and friends to celebrate the summer’s harvest under a full moon. Building on that tradition, we hope to bring together our neighbors in the Boston community. Activities will include lantern making, outdoor games, and a competition for best bánh trung thu, Vietnamese moon cakes. We will end the festival at sundown with a lighting of lanterns.

 

When: October 14th, 12pm-6pm

Where: Town Field at Park Street and Dorchester Avenue.
