Celebrate the Year of the Rat This Week in McKinley Park

A happy and prosperous future awaits celebrants at this weekend's Chinese New Year festivities taking place in the McKinley Park neighborhood. Marz Community Brewing Co. brings a special menu and dragon dancers to the tap room to celebrate the Lunar New Year on Sunday, February 2. Note that the Chinese New Year Celebration at the field house has been canceled due to concerns related to the coronavirus outbreak.

In addition to the neighborhood's ongoing event series — including this week's screening of Mouse Hunt at the McKinley Park branch of the Chicago Public Library — Pochos presents a special Galentines night of all-female entertainment.
