#15. Golden Threads of Tradition: Rowena’s Gift to America
At age 90, Rowena Chow believes in the power of art to bring people together. She pours her heart into teaching fellow residents how to build a splendid dragon, capturing the spirit of China’s lunar celebrations. Bubbles, newspapers, and bright paints transform into a majestic symbol of good fortune. Her hands, though aged, brim with energy and purpose as she shares each tradition’s meaning. Neighbors learn, laugh, and discover that cultural exchange is about more than crafts — it is about love and understanding. With every brushstroke, Rowena reminds us that America’s tapestry is woven with many threads, each adding its own brilliance.
