Perth Chinese New Year Fair 珀斯中华新年文化节

Our Association set up a HakkaWA stall at the Perth Chinese New Year Fair 2013 to join in the celebrations at James Street in Northbridge on 10 February 2013. The stall served to promote Hakka culture & history.

Our stall was open from 11am to 6pm. But work started from 8am. Many members volunteered to help. A lot of interests were shown by the good crowd all day.
Committee member Xiao Ye volunteered to perform Chinese painting and calligraphy. 

2013年的珀斯中华新年文化节,公会在桥北的James St 开了一个西澳客家公会的特别摊位,以助发扬客家文化和历史。人群整天都很多,也对客家文化历史和我们公会很感兴趣。

我们的摊位是从上午11时至下午6时开放。但许多自愿帮助的会员从早上8点已开始工作。理事小叶在场表演中国画和书法。





Many inquiries at the stall
