Parol Lantern Festival, December 9th 3-8pm, Yerba Buena Gardens 

Join the San Francisco Community on December 9th for the 21st Annual Parol Lantern Festival in Yerba Buena Gardens from 3-8 pm. Bring your families and celebrate the contributions of our Kababayan colleagues and Filipino Clubs. 

"This year's theme, "Breaking Dawn: Illuminating Mental Wellness," will shed light on the important issue of mental health within the Filipino Community. Beyond celebrating our cultural traditions, the festival aims to dispel the stigma around mental health, fostering a community that nurtures mental well-being.
 

The metaphor of "Breaking Dawn" serves as a powerful theme for this year’s Tala Awards as traditional Filipino Parol lanterns become beacons of hope and enlightenment, each one telling a unique journey and vision of mental wellness."
