DEI Spotlight
Join MPI St. Louis in celebrating the Chinese/Lunar New Year and Black History Month!  

Chinese New Year
The Chinese/Lunar New Year was celebrated on February 1. This year was the year of the tiger! The Chinese New Year is also known as the Spring Festival or Lunar New Year as it reflects the start of the new moon.

It’s a very significant day in Asian culture.  Locally, throughout the year, consider attending some of the Asian American Chamber of Commerce and the OCA (Asian Pacific American Advocates) events and/or supporting these organizations:
Asian American Chamber of Commerce of St. Louis; www.oca-stl.org. For more information about Chinese New Year, please visit Chinese New Year - Wikipedia.
