Holiday Hoopla is going out with a bang.

Join us for the closing reception of Holiday Hoopla at Creative IQ this Saturday, 2/7 from 3:00–8:30 PM, in conjunction with the Lunar New Year celebration and parade.

Experience the exhibition—bold work, joyful energy, and a room full of creativity—before it comes down on on 2/15. Come early, stay late, bring friends, and soak in the festive spirit as art, community, and celebration collide.

Make an afternoon and evening of it: explore the show, celebrate the Lunar New Year, and be part of a lively, creative gathering that happens once a year.

We’ll see you there.
