Over 200 people joined our 2025 Tết Trung Thu Mid-Autumn Festival to enjoy classic Vietnamese games, delicious food provided by Thái Sơn, and live portrait painting by artist Francis Long Nguyen. Guests also watched a special performance of the beloved Chú Cuội legend, shopped for aó dài and treats from local vendors, participated in VHC’s raffle, made mooncakes, and celebrated Vietnamese culture together.

Children enjoyed a variety of activities, including the lantern-making competition and face-painting.

A big thank-you to all of our dedicated volunteers and this year’s sponsors: New York Life, The Coder School, Thái Sơn Restaurant, Beaucoup, and Thùy Phạm.
