North Shore High School’s Asian Student Alliance proudly hosted its 2nd Annual District-Wide Lunar New Year Celebration on Feb. 4, drawing an estimated 700 attendees—nearly double last year’s turnout. Founded by club president Kaitlin Ho and led alongside co-vice presidents Nora Solomon, Sahana Gibbons, and advisor Cynthia Li, the ASA worked tirelessly to expand the event, creating an even more immersive and vibrant cultural experience.
The Lunar New Year celebration was first introduced last year, marking the largest Asian cultural event in North Shore history. This year, the event built upon that success, offering a dynamic lineup of traditional performances, interactive activities, and authentic cuisine to celebrate Asian heritage while fostering inclusivity and education.
The evening was filled with engaging cultural activities, including lantern making, printmaking, sugar drawing demonstrations, and a variety of interactive games such as “Guess the Candy” and “Spin the Wheel.” Attendees also enjoyed traditional Asian cuisine while capturing memories at the event’s photo booth and souvenir stands. The hallways were filled with excitement as students and families participated in games like Pitch-Pot, adding to the lively and festive atmosphere.
The night was brought to life by a series of incredible performances from talented students and community members.
