Eric Adams opens up Borough Hall to ring in the Lunar New Year
The Lunar New Year was in full swing as Brooklyn Borough Hall took an evening out to celebrate Asian culture and honor local Asian-Americans who are making a difference in their communities on Fri., Feb. 15.
“Brooklyn Borough Hall’s heritage events celebrate significant contributions made by Brooklynites in the arts, business and other aspects of civic life,” Borough President Eric Adams said in a statement for this newspaper. “Last Friday’s celebration welcoming the Year of the Pig was a fun-filled occasion that reflected the importance of promoting peace, generosity and good fortune for everyone in our borough.”
With 2019 being the“Year of the Pig,” young dancers from Circle Arts & Dance Studio wore pig costumes for their performance, one of several that entertained the crowd of attendees.
