Chinese New Year, known in China as the
Spring Festival, is considered the most im-

Traditionally, it begins on the first day of
the first lunar month in the lunar calendar

tern Festival. To match the theme of Lan-
tern Festival, the Center will hold a lantern
riddle program at the celebration and peo-
ple who solve lantern riddle will be re-
warded a prize!
Come and bring your family and friends to
view the new exhibition "In Search of
Roots 2008", as well as visit the different
arts and crafts booths and demonstrations,
including Chinese Opera Face Painting,
Brush Painting and Calligraphy Demonstra-
tion, Chinese Puzzle Demonstration, Tradi-
tional Chinese Paper Cut, and Fortune Tell-
ing. In addition, there will be cultural per-

In September, a good friend congratulated
me with the Chinese saying, *f.!§~~~ilaoma shitu), upon learning that I assumed
the executive directorship of the Center.
This endearing phrase simply translates to
"an old horse knows the way."
That said, this "old horse" would like to
thank each and every one of you who made
2008 an exciting and productive year. We
are blessed with your generosity, participa-
tion, and steadfast support. 2009 promises
to be a challenging year in light of our de-pressed economy. We are faced with re-
duced revenues. In the months ahead, we
will be asking you for additional help to
weather us through this tough period.
Nonetheless, we will feature four major
exhibitions: In Search of Roots, Present
Tense: Contemporary Art about Chinese
Youth, Chinese Tea (in collaboration with
the Pacific Heritage Museum), and Dora
Hsiung's Fiber Art. Additionally we will
continue our cinema series, with a special
March event with Alex Tse, Chinese
American filmmaker and screenwriter of theupcoming Warner Brothers movie, Watch-
men.
Please join us on several upcoming events:
January 16 - opening of the In Search of
Roots exhibition
January 21 - CHOW (Chinatown On
Wednesdays) sponsored by the Mayor's
Office
February 7 and 8 - Spring Festival
February 21 - Presentation by interns of the
In Search of Roots program
InMay and September, we are co-sponsor
two higher education fairs to assist lim
and non-English speaking parents and th
high school children on how to get into
leges and universities. Education has alw
been an important Chinese value. Wea
excited to be part of this effort.
Please visit our website www.c-c-c.org for
latest updates on our events.
Another exciting bit of news for you:
Center plans to expand the In Search
Roots program for adults over 27 yea
of age. The current program focuses
youth between 17 and 27. The first gr
will travel either in the Spring or Fall, c
centrating on individuals with ancestral ro
in the Taishan (Toisan) and Kaip
(Hoiping) areas in the Pearl River Deltagion of Guangdong Province. Additiona
the group will visit Meiling Pass, and Z
jixiang, the Tang Dynasty and Song Dyna
historic places where the majority of the e
Cantonese speaking settlers came from. If
are interested in being part of this progra
please apply through our website at www.c
c.org,
2008 InSearch of Roots
In this newsletter you will find the job
nouncement for the position of executive
rector of the Center. It is my intentionserve as the executive director until the Bo
fmds a permanent appointment and to ens
a seamless and smooth transition.
Meanwhile, this "old horse" wishes each
of you and your loved ones continued g
health, love, happiness, peace, and prosper
during the holiday season and through
2009 and the Chinese New Year of the
(4707).

Fundraising
CCC's Donor Spotlight: Tiger Wong
By Ruth Young
Tiger Wong was a teenager growing up in the
early 1960s in Chinatown when he first heard
about the Chinese Culture Center. As Wong
started working in Chinatown during the early
80s to mid-90s, he tried to get a picture of
what organizations in Chinatown were do-
ing. One of the organizations he truly be-
gan to get to know was the Center. He says,
"I realized that the mission of the Center is
a link to our past." Wong says the In
Search of Roots program, which brings C
nese American youth back to China to expl
their ancestry, is a great example. He is g
that the program brings future generatio
closer to their past by teaching them "ab
their roots and how they lived and the ha
ships."
Wong says one of the main reasons he
been a long and dedicated supporter of
Center is that "the Culture Center had a d
purpose to enrich future generations and p
ple who do not fully understand Chinese h
tory." In return, "It was a joy to see youn
kids going back to see their roots," Wo
says. He believes it is important to ensure
Center has the fmancial means to be via
for years to come. Wong recognizes that
classes offered at the Center, such as the M
darin classes, benefit the community at la
and he is glad that the Center's gallery i
place to view local artists in town.
Wong, who is confident in the future of
Center, says, "The Center's Board is stro
they know which direction they want to t
the Center." When asked about his hopes
the Center, Wong replies, "I hope we
continue the mission of the Center to re
out to the community at large. There is a r
Chinese culture we must preserve. If
don't, we lose it."
Celebrating a Successful Harmony & Bliss 2008
By Lenora Kwok
The event was sold out. The room was set in
black, copper and red with varied colored
pottery accents. The champagne chilled and
readied for serving as were the 6 magnificent
wine-paired courses such as the Thai Green
Curry Seafood Soup, Roast Soy Hoisin Pork
Medallions with Sweet Chile Ginger Glaze.
Three hundred and ten elegantly dressed men
and women braved the driving rain and wind
to join the evening of Harmony and Bliss2008, the signature fundraising event for the
Chinese Culture Center held November 1st at
the Hilton Financial District.
Over 500 volunteer hours, countless staff
hours and the immeasurably appreciated sup-
port of our community melded to create yet
another successful event that raised funds to
support the ongoing efforts of the Chinese
Culture Center. Deep gratitude is given to the
Evon Corporation, the Hilton Financial Dis-
trict, United Commercial Bank, Union Bank
of California, Macy's, Cathay Pacific Air-
ways, Wells Fargo Bank, Dr. & Mrs. Rolland
Lowe, Dan and Irene Riley, Atherton In-
vestment Group - Marjorie Quon, Dr. &
Mrs. Eric Leung, Michael Lee, Him Mark
and Laura Lai, the alumni of the In Search
of Roots Program, many individual donors
and each of you that attended and supported
Harmony and Bliss 2008. Your contin
support, sacrifice and giving are the hear
our collective efforts to preserve and sh
culture for ourselves, our children and
broader community. A Thousand Th
Yous!
