Harvest Moon Celebration - 2017
The Huntington's Harvest Moon Celebration commemorates the Mid-Autumn Moon Festival, a beloved Chinese tradition celebrating family and friends. Dating back more than 2,000 years, it marks the end of the summer harvest.

The full moon is a symbol of prosperity, wholeness, and reunion.
