MOCACREATE at Home: Remembering with Willow Crowns for Qing Ming

 

Qing Ming (清明) is a time to honor our ancestors and visit their resting places. Willows and their leafy branches are thought to represent new life and ward off evil, so they are a common sight during Qing Ming. Join MOCA educator Alice in learning more about this important holiday and then create a willow branch crown to wear or give as an offering.
