Queens Welcomes the Year of the Dragon

The Chinese Dragon is the most intriguing and auspicious of the mythological creatures that make up the twelve year cycle.  To celebrate the Year of the Dragon, there will be a wonderful free music event in Queens at Crossing Art Gallery in Flushing at 3:00 pm this Sunday, January 22nd, where you can hear a live performance of the Shanghai String Quartet.  You can also hear it on WQXR.  While you are in Flushing, take time to sample some of great food with a cup of tea.  Not only is there great music, there is great art and amazing food in Queens to enjoy as you welcome the new year!
