The Kansas City Chinese Association (KCCA), is a local non-profit organization that promotes Chinese culture and education through socialization, cultural exchange and festival events. The vision of the association is to join hands with the Chinese people and the American friends who love traditional Chinese culture to create a Chinese cultural center centered on culture and education.

The KCCA 2016 Chinese New Year Gala had more than 500 guests that included local Chinese families, American friends, including Chinese and American politicians and business. They all gathered, singing and laughing, to celebrate the holiday with lively lanterns, red lanterns, banners and scrolls, filled with festive atmosphere.

3:00 pm – 6: 00 pm  Cultural Showcase & Entertainment
