In celebration of the Chinese New Year for 2011 Muk Muk Indigenous Fine Art was fortunate to receive a Chinese Lion Blessing from the Chung Wah Society Dragon and Lion Dance Troupe.
The traditional Chinese Lion Dance has a strong and rich history that dates back to the early days of imperial China.
The Lion Dance is believed to scare away evil spirits and brings good luck, joy, fortune, and happiness. It is often performed at the openings of businesses, religious festivals, cultural ceremonies, and special occasions, but mostly can be seen during Chinese New Year celebrations.
