1 Ching Ming April 7, 2018 Tucson Chinese Cultural Center 1288 West River Road Tucson, AZ

2 清明杜牧作清明时节雨纷纷, 路上行人欲断魂借问酒家何处有? 牧童遥指杏花村 Ching Ming by Du Mu It drizzles endlessly during the rainy season in spring, Travelers along the road look gloomy and miserable. When I ask a shepherd boy where I can find a tavern, He points at a distant hamlet nestling amidst apricot blossoms. What is Ching Ming Today, we honor our friends and families of our community who have passed away.

3 Ching Ming Festival In the traditional Chinese lunar calendar (equivalent to April 5th of the Gregorian calendar), Ching Ming was originally used as a solar term concerning agricultural affairs. The famous Almanac Binder states that after fifteen days of the Vernal Equinox, when air is clear, everything becomes clear, so comes Ching Ming. Literally, Ching Ming means transparent and clear. It tells people that spring has come, it s time to start tilling. In the month of March before the Ching Ming Festival, there were originally two other festivals for worshipping ancestors: the Shang Festival and the Cold Food Festival. In these festivals, people believed that when winter gave a way to spring, using spring water to wash off the winter pollution could bring new life. In these festivals, people lit new candles on the cemetery of their ancestors, sweep away the dirt and worship their ancestors; they pray for their ancestors to bless their offspring with gratitude. Because the Cold Food Festival was held on the day before Ching Ming, these worshipping activities gradually became part of the Ching Ming Festival. Since the Tang Dynasty, Ching Ming Festival has officially become an important custom for Chinese to worship ancestors. In the seven or eight days around the Ching Ming festival, usually accompanied by drizzling rain, every family must visit their ancestor s mausoleum for weeding and earth-raising, putting on incense and providing favorite food for the ancestors, and telling their wishes to ancestors and praying for bless. At the end of worship, people hike in the surrounding mountains to be vigorized by the spring growth, and welcome a fresh start of better future. Ching Ming is an important festival for the Chinese world-wide to worship and thank their ancestors. In the Ching Ming Festival this year, for keeping the traditions of Chinese community, Tucson Chinese Cultural Center specially reserved worshipping time at the Evergreen Cemetery in town. Evergreen cemetery is a local cemetery where many famous people in the history of Tucson are resting in peace. Worshippers can get free flowers at the lobby. Please bring our sincere respect to your ancestors.
