FOOD VOUCHERS IN THE FOOD COURT
The Food Court now uses food vouchers instead of cash. Vouchers must be purchased at designated booths in the Food Court and then used to pay for food.
Food vouchers are $1 each, and you can purchase as many as you like. They
are good both Saturday and Sunday of the Asian Celebration.
Unused vouchers may be returned for a refund. Please also consider donating
your unused vouchers as a way to support future Asian Celebrations.
There are voucher booths in the northwest and southeast corners of the
Food Court, and in the front hallway just outside the Food Court. They
can accept cash or credit cards. See the map on the back cover of the
program for locations.

At the Historical museum
This display was one of
several prominent “Festivals
of Lane County” which were
featured at the Lane County
Historical Museum.
The display includes (from left
to right):
• Traditional Japanese lion’s
head mask designed and made
by Ken Nagao, which was
used by Eugene Taiko when
they performed a piece called
“Matsuri” (Celebration).
• 5’ x 9’ kite painted by Ken
Nagao depicting stylized
MEGAN LALLIER-BARRON
You can visit the museum
during the Asian Celebration.
Just exit the Food Court
through its north exit doors,
pass the exterior cooking area,
and you will get to the main
entrance of the Lane County
Historical Museum.
Japanese koi and sockeye
salmon frolicking together.
• Three fox masks made by
Ken Nagao used by dancers
accompanied by Eugene Taiko
in a piece called “Family” to
show how the sounds of the
taiko (made by Ken) brought
people of different cultures
together in friendship.
• Four of our favorite
posters created for the
Asian Celebration around a
traditional Chinese lion’s head
mask used by several groups
of our local Lion Dancers who
were trained by David Tam.
Poster art was created by Kenji

about our theme
The horse has been revered in many cultures
and religions as a sacred animal. Mythology has
even depicted it as a single-horned or winged
creature. This powerful and beautiful animal has
made possible travel and movement in all parts
of the world. Horses have transported gods and
men of all ranks throughout history and myth.
The horse symbolizes many things: power, speed,
tenacity, intuition, strength, agility, perseverance, purity, virility, fertility, travel, and money.
In itself, it is a beautiful animal – majestic
and wild, yet gentle when tamed. Many Asian
businesses have a horse painting or statue to
invite the energy of success and the ability to
leap over obstacles with grace and ease.
When you hear someone say, “you’ve got good
horse sense,” take it as a compliment. It means
having good judgment, common sense, and the
ability to make decisions quickly and soundly –
traits necessary to succeed in any enterprise.
and aspire to see the future with excitement
– leaping towards goals with the conviction,
power, and agility of the horse – that is what
we invite into our lives as we celebrate this
wondrous creature and old friend to mankind.
This year ’s theme, “Riding Into A New Era,”
invokes the energy of powerful and successful
change. The ability to move on from the past
Let us all ride into the new era of peace, happiness and success as we welcome yet another
year – the Year of the Horse!
