Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams was the host of the Chinese Autumn Moon Festival at Brooklyn Bridge Park on Saturday. The annual festival gives thanks for the mid-autumn harvest of rice and wheat.
The event included cultural performances, booths, a children’s lantern parade, and traditional food, including moon cakes and a whole roasted pig, which was given the ceremonial first chop by BP Adams.
The event brought Chinese and Americans together for a nice day out.

Aww. The lion has a soft side for kids. |
What's this? A giant Mickey, Minnie and Panda join the lion dancers. |
There were booths with games and activities, like his photo booth. |
