We’re a group of Chinese residents of Summit, NJ and nearby towns, who volunteer at the Summit Public Library.

We are currently running a biweekly Chinese Culture Club program and organizing the library’s Lunar New Year celebration every year.

Another wonderful Chinese Corner at Summit Free Public Library🌕🥮!

So happy we could celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival together with our community — sharing mooncakes, poetry, paper cutting, and a bit of Chinese culture and tradition.

Thank you to everyone who helped make it happen. 中秋快乐！❤️

🎨Our 6th Lunar New Year Art Show Award Ceremony was such a joyful and heartwarming celebration!

We are so proud of all our young artists who shared their creativity and spirit with the community. This year’s collaboration with the National Summer Reading theme (Unearth a Story) made the event even more special, connecting art, reading, and cultural celebration in a powerful way. A big thank you to our wonderful volunteers, judges, supportive families, and our honored guest Councilman Bob Pawlowski for presenting the awards.

Special thanks to Summit Free Public Library for being such an amazing partner and host.

Grateful for this beautiful community — and already looking forward to next year! ✨
