Dear Friends,

Now that kids are back at school, we can welcome fall. Many cultures mark the change in season in a variety of different ways. One tradition many San Franciscans of Chinese descent observe every September is the Mid-Autumn Festival.

I invite you to join me at the annual Richmond District Autumn Moon Festival, produced by my office in collaboration with the office of Supervisor Sandra Lee Fewer, Clement Street Merchants Association, Richmond District Neighborhood Center, and Community Youth Center.

Autumn Moon Festival
Saturday, September 8, 2018

11:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
Clement Street between 5th and 8th Avenues

Autumn Moon celebrations have been held throughout Asia for well over 1,000 years. They are often considered a "Chinese Thanksgiving" because of their celebration of gratitude and inclusion of abundant food - including the popular moon cake. The Autumn Moon Festival will be a fun, family-friendly event with live performances and traditional arts & crafts, offering a taste of the Richmond District's cultural diversity.

For more information, visit the Autumn Moon Festival Website or contact my District Office at 415-557-2312 or visit my website. We look forward to seeing you there! 

Sincerely,

Phil Ting
Assemblymember, 19th District
