The community hosted its 27th annual Mid-Autumn Festival, featuring live performances, vendors, and family-friendly activities.
"The Mid-Autumn Festival is celebrated in China and other Southeast Asian countries and it's a time to celebrate families, being together, centered around the harvest moon, when the moon is the fullest," said Jenny Chen, a volunteer with Asian Americans United, who organized the festival.
"It's really exciting for us to be back on the street in Chinatown, back as we were in 2019," said Chen. Part of this year's festival also encouraged political activism with a get-out-the-vote booth where volunteers are registering voters and teaching them about the issues. "Really to celebrate, paint Chinatown as our space, as our community, and really show off how important immigrant communities and neighborhoods are," said Vuong.
