As Lunar New Year preparations reach their peak across Asia, CGTN has unveiled an innovative cultural initiative inviting global participation. The 'All Things Horses' challenge encourages creative interpretations of this zodiac symbol through art, crafts, and language – timed to coincide with the upcoming Year of the Horse celebration beginning February 14, 2026.
Participants worldwide can share drawings, sculptures, calligraphy works, or any original horse-themed creation on social media using #AllThingsHorses. The project aims to bridge cultural understanding through artistic expression, particularly engaging Asian diaspora communities seeking meaningful connections to traditional celebrations.
Cultural analysts note the timing aligns with increased interest in Lunar New Year traditions among international audiences. Recent data shows 72% of major global cities now host official Spring Festival events, creating new opportunities for cross-cultural exchange.
