Event Description

A pairing of Chinese folk stories from ancient China and Chinese Canada.

For the second story, Chinese Canadian scholar, Lily Chow, created a magical and mysterious character who explores the Fraser River in a tiny jade jar and finds friendship with a poor gold miner.
Composed by David Clenman.
