Organized by the museum and other local community groups, the free activities proved extremely popular, with all tickets being booked out a week in advance. People queued up for over an hour to get wrist ribbons for the lion dance and workshops to make papercraft dragons – the upcoming Chinese Lunar New Year is the Year of the Dragon.
