Workshop

Mid-Autumn Cultural Event

The Mid-Autumn Festival offers a tangible starting point for cultural exchange: making, tasting, solving and storytelling. The session introduces the meaning of reunion and then makes room for participants to connect it with celebrations, family rituals and memories from their own backgrounds.

What to expect

We make simple mooncakes together, taste tea slowly, play lantern riddles and hear a short festival story. Conversation grows from what is already on the table, so nobody needs to arrive with a prepared speech.

Can I register now?
The funded programme is underway and several sessions have already taken place. Dates and registration for upcoming sessions will be published when confirmed; documentation from past sessions is being prepared.
Do I need experience or fluent English?
No. Sessions offer different ways to join through movement, sensation, making and observation.
What if I want to skip something?
You can pause, observe, adapt or leave an activity. That choice is part of participation.
