o( ˶^▾^˶ )o 🐍 Ready for some cheer? In honour of the Year of the Snake, three Taiwanese Canadian singers #Ginalina, #VanLefan, #KapaArkieh have joined hands with Cantonese musician #DanielLew to create the anthem “New Year is Here,” and they pulled it off in less than a month.
📢 It was an absolute delight to join Vancouverites for LunarFest’s opening ceremony ushering in the Year of the Snake. Through exciting performances, artists reflected the growing cultural ties between Taiwan and Canada. 😊💕

Imagine how it feels to win Olympic gold against opponents from the authoritarian country that wants to take your sovereignty - and when you receive your medal, your country's name, flag, and anthem are completely erased.
How much longer will this indignity be forced on Taiwan?
In 2024, we hope everyone can raise our imaginations and lift our curiosities to create a world where we are all #BorntobeFree.
Thanks to all our sponsors, community partners, artists, volunteers, and of course, everyone who joined us at our events.
See you next year!
