Lunar New Year Parade and Festival in Chinatown on February 2

Last year, 2013, Bill de Blasio, center, in Chinatown.
From the New York Times:

Many New Yorkers will gravitate toward Chinatown for the Lunar New Year, when a parade and festival starting at 1 p.m. on Feb. 2 will ring in the Year of the Horse.

On the weekends before and after, the New York Chinese Cultural Center, for the 27th consecutive year, will take the party to cultural institutions across the city, with a program focusing on traditional dance and offering craft workshops for all ages.  (Jan. 25, at 2 p.m., Bronx Museum, 2040 Grand Concourse, at East 165th Street, 718 681-6000, bronxmuseum.org; Jan. 26, at 1 p.m., Queens Museum of Art, New York City Building, Flushing Meadows-Corona Park, 718 592-9700, queensmuseum.org; Feb. 8, at 1 p.m., Metropolitan Museum of Art, 212 535-7710, metmuseum.org; Feb. 9, at 2 p.m., Snug Harbor Cultural Center, 1000 Richmohd Terrace, 718 448-2500, snug-harbor.org.)
