The Hungry Ghost Festival is observed on the 7th month of the lunar calendar, which is known as the “ghost month”. It is a Chinese tradition of honoring family members and ancestors along with wandering spirits who have not yet reincarnated into their next life. “The Hungry Ghost Festival Tea Party,” is a collaborative art performance curated by Nantronic, centering on creating inclusive Modern Asian Diaspora Experiences and is based in the philosophy of casting all who come. Nantronic positions, “the Hungry Ghost Festival Tea Party,” as a playful way of creating performative diversity, inclusion, equity and belonging experiences, which centers on actively dismantling white supremacy narratives and normalizes cultural experiences outside of what the dominate Eurocentric narratives find as acceptable traditions.
Nantronic will be hosting two days of the Hungry Ghost Festival on Dai Zen Farms, located in the beautiful Skagit Valley. As part of the performance, she will be “opening” Mei Yueh’s Tea House in honor of her grandmother teaching workshops on folding dumplings and making bubble tea. The day will also include opportunities to learn and create new traditions for a new generation emerging out of the COVID-19 pandemic and learn how Chinese traditions help to make sense of our world.
