At A Shared Table Across A Thousand Miles, we created the Story Exchange with a simple idea:
Everyone has a memory worth sharing, and sometimes, one story is all it takes to bring strangers a little closer.

Childhood lanterns, favorite mooncakes, grandma’s cooking, and family gatherings we wish we could relive. Every card held a different little piece of home.

We received so many heartfelt stories that day, and we’ve selected 18 to share with you here.

Some made us smile, others made us a little homesick. Thank you to everyone who took the time to share a piece of their lives with us. Your stories made this gathering even more meaningful.

If any of these stories bring back a memory of your own, we‘d love to hear it in the comments.

And we hope there will be many more moments like this, when we can sit together, share our stories, and find a little bit of home in one another.

A look back at 月聚华埠 · 千里同席 | A Shared Table Across A Thousand Miles.

For one afternoon, Mott Street became a long Mid-Autumn table shared by the community.

People stopped by to make, draw, play, listen, eat, and stay a little longer. Some marked their hometowns on our mooncake map, some met new people through games and workshops, and some simply stood by the street with a piece of mooncake and a cup of tea while enjoying the music.

Art, Live Performances, Hanfu, Calligraphy, Jianzi, Workshops, and Sticker Cards brought together people from different places and different generations.

That is also what we loved most about the idea of “A Shared Table Across A Thousand Miles.”

For many of us living in New York, reunion does not always mean sitting around the same table back home. Sometimes, it happens on a city street, through a familiar flavor, a conversation with someone new, or a small moment that makes a place feel a little more like home.

Thank you to everyone who joined us, and to all the artists, musicians, performers, communities, sponsors, volunteers, and team members who made the day possible.

Thanks to our Co-organizers of 月聚华埠 · 千里同席 | A Shared Table Across A Thousand Miles: Chinatown B.I.D & Chinatown Partnership, for bringing this Mid-Autumn gathering to Mott Street with us.

The event may be over, but there are still so many moments from that day we want to share.

This Mid-Autumn Festival, we’re bringing together artists, musicians, community groups, and traditional culture practitioners on Mott Street for a day of workshops, performances, and shared traditions.

5 Artists · 5 Interactive Workshops
Jingtong Yan Jingtong Yan
Create a 3D paper mooncake and turn a familiar Mid-Autumn treat into a paper artwork of your own.
Qieer Wang Qieer Wang
Imagine yourself as a mooncake. Draw a mooncake character inspired by your own personality, look, and imagination.
Haojie Sim Hao Jie 豪杰
Join a tabletop interactive game designed to bring people together. Sit down, play, and maybe leave knowing someone new.
Chuyin Wang Chuchu Wang
“Imagine Your Mooncake!” Design the mooncake in your imagination, from its shape and color to its flavor.
Qing Zhuang Qing Zhuang (she/her)
Make your own mooncake and Jade Rabbit with air-dry clay, and take home a small piece of Mid-Autumn with you.

Live Performances
Wu Dialect Jazz Ensemble
Hear the sounds of Jiangnan meet jazz as familiar dialects and melodies find a new voice on the streets of Chinatown.
Community Song & Dance Group
Music and dance will bring even more energy to Mott Street throughout the day.

Beyond the workshops and performances, Mid-Autumn traditions will continue throughout the street.

Meet the Hanfu Society and explore traditional Chinese dress and festival culture, join the Jianzi Club for a few rounds of this classic street game, and watch calligrapher Mr. Xinren Wang create Chinese calligraphy live on Mott Street. The Taoist Association will also join us to share traditional culture and add another layer of Chinatown memory to this Mid-Autumn gathering.

And of course, no Mid-Autumn Festival is complete without mooncakes and tea.

Drinks are generously sponsored by NAYUKI, with Mid-Autumn mooncakes provided by Baken Zhuang and Ajisen Ramen.

Make a paper mooncake, sculpt a Jade Rabbit, listen to jazz, kick a jianzi, and finish the day with a bite of mooncake and a sip of tea.

See you tomorrow on Mott Street.

「月聚華埠・千里同席」活動手冊來啦 📖🥮

這次我們用一張 月餅集貼卡，把整場活動串在一起。

到場後，先在 入場拱門處找工作人員領取集貼卡，再跟著活動地圖走進不同區域、參與互動、完成小任務，一路收集不同款式的月餅貼紙。

現場一共有 9 款月餅貼紙。
集齊至少 3 款不同貼紙後，就可以憑集貼卡兌換一份 月餅 & 飲品。🥮🍵

想知道——
貼紙分別在哪裡拿？
每個點位要完成什麼任務？
藝術家互動區怎麼玩？
舊物交換怎麼參加？
月餅地圖又在哪裡？

詳細玩法都已經整理進這本活動手冊裡。

活動當天現場也會設置 大型活動地圖海報，不知道下一站要去哪時，跟著地圖走就好。

📌 簡單記住這條路線：
入場領卡 → 跟著地圖逛活動 → 集至少 3 款不同貼紙 → 換月餅和飲品

一張集貼卡，從街頭一路玩到月餅和茶。

也希望大家在集貼紙的過程裡，多走幾步、多玩一點，慢慢認識這場屬於華埠的中秋。
來之前記得先把手冊存好，到了現場真的會用得到 🌕✨

Our event guide is here 📖🥮

This year, we’re connecting the entire festival through one simple activity: a Mooncake Sticker Card.

When you arrive, stop by the entrance arch and ask our staff for a sticker card. Then follow the event map, explore different areas, join activities, and complete small tasks to collect mooncake stickers along the way.

There are 9 different mooncake sticker designs throughout the event.

Collect at least 3 different stickers, then bring your card to our staff to redeem a mooncake & drink. 🥮🍵

Wondering where to collect each sticker, what to do at each stop, how the artist activities work, or where to find the mooncake map and item exchange?
It’s all in the event guide.

We’ll also have a large event map displayed on-site, so if you’re not sure where to go next, just follow the map and keep exploring.

📌 Pick up your card → Follow the map → Join activities → Collect 3+ different stickers → Redeem your mooncake & drink

One sticker card, one afternoon in Chinatown, and plenty of little stops along the way.

We hope you’ll take your time, explore a little more, meet someone new, and leave with a few new Mid-Autumn memories.
Save the guide before you come — you’ll want it with you on the day. 🌕✨

紐約中秋怎麼玩？來華埠過一個不一樣的中秋🌕
今年中秋，我們想把 Mott Street 變成一張可以邊走、邊玩、邊留下故事的長桌。

不只是來看活動，也可以真正參與其中。

🌕 現場一共有 5 種玩法：
① 掌聲中把熱鬧過成「節」
聽現場音樂、看看演出，和身邊的人一起過節。
無論是在紐約很多年，還是剛剛認識這座城市，都歡迎來坐坐。

② 月餅，你家在哪裡？
來看看大家記憶裡的「家鄉味」都來自哪裡。
在月餅遷移地圖上留下自己的家鄉，也可以為最喜歡的月餅投上一票。

③ 記憶裡，中秋是什麼味道？
現場一共有 9 款月餅小貼紙，去不同活動區逛逛、玩玩，
集齊至少 3 款不同貼紙，就可以解鎖月餅和飲品試吃🥮
邊吃邊聊，也許還能在同一張桌上，聽見來自不同地方的中秋故事。

④ 「舊物交個新朋友」
可以帶一件和中秋、家鄉或某段記憶有關的小東西來。
先說說它的故事，再把它交給一位新的朋友。
沒有帶東西也沒關係，寫下一段關於家、遷移或中秋的故事，也可以一起參與。

⑤ 這次，月餅裡裝點想像！
我們邀請了 5 位藝術家，把月餅變成不同的創作入口。
插畫、紙藝、繪畫、互動遊戲、參與式藝術……
選一個喜歡的玩法，跟著藝術家一起動手，把你的中秋記憶變成作品。

這次我們想做的，不只是一場「看完就走」的中秋活動。
可以吃一點、聊一點、畫一點，也可以在一張桌子上，聽見來自不同地方的中秋故事。

9 月 26 日，來華埠和我們一起過中秋。🌕
