Chinese New Year in Valparaiso, Indiana

Chinese New Year in Indiana comes to Valparaiso University with a dinner, musical performances, slide shows, skits, and more.

The typical celebration menu includes Gongbao chicken, Chinese ribs, spicy tofu, traditional Chinese vegetable dishes, fruit and Chinese desserts.

The dinner program features slide shows of photographic highlights of the University's interactions with China, skits written and performed by Valpo's Chinese studies graduate students and Chinese music performed by students.

The Chinese New Year Celebration is co-sponsored by Valpo's Chinese and Japanese Studies Program and the Confucius Institute. Valpo offers undergraduate and graduate degrees in Chinese studies and it is the first faith-based university in the United States to host a Confucius Institute, a non-profit institute established and funded by the Chinese government to promote cultural, business, educational, artistic and government exchanges.
