The Kalamazoo Lion Dance Troupe celebrated the Chinese Year of the Dragon by performing a dragon dance at the Kalamazoo Central Library.
A large crowd of moms, dads, and children gathered to see the dancers and hear the folktale of “The Golden Reed Pipe,” a folktale about a brave boy who saves his sister from a dragon.
The event wrapped up with three colorful lions performing the Lion Dance.
