Lunar Fest 2022 at The Woodland, 12 pm - 3 pm
The Woodland, 60 Woodland Rd, Maplewood
Ring in the Lunar New Year and celebrate the Year of the Tiger! Enjoy performances by the New York Chinese Cultural Center or a shadow puppet show performed by the Chinese Theater Works. There will be plenty of crafts for the kids to enjoy! And, yes, there will be food vendors too. Maplewood Township COVID-19 safety guidelines will be followed. Masks and proof of vaccination as appropriate for the age group are required.

Do not let transportation stop you and your family/friends from getting vaccinated. Rides are available free of charge to vaccination sites wherever Lyft services are available provided your vaccination site is no more than 25 miles from home.  To use this service, you must have a phone that receives and sends text messages. Rides can be scheduled as early as a week in advance but must be scheduled at least 24 hours in advance of your vaccination date. This program is open to everyone, including people with collapsible wheelchairs and walkers.  Personal aides are welcome to ride along.
