CI-UNH will hold its 2012 Chinese New Year (the year of the Dragon) Celebration on Thursday, January 26 from 6:00–8:00 p.m. in the Johnson Theatre at UNH. CI-UNH has been working with several top musicians and artists in China.

To make this a true celebration for all Chinese language students in NH, CI-UNH cordially invites each school district with a Chinese language program to participate in this joyous occasion. Students and teachers are encouraged to sign up for 1-2 programs for that evening. Please email CI-UNH codirector Yige Wang (yige@comcast.net) your program ideas with a brief description. Once approved, your program will be formally added to the final program list for that evening. Johnson Theatre is one of the best theatre venues in NH. Parents are also encouraged to attend.
A Chinese buffet dinner will be provided for all participants at 5:00 in a nearby building.
Seating is limited in the Johnson Theatre, so please sign up early by contacting yige@comcast.net.
