Spring Festival Through the Years at Duke

Since 2012, Duke has created a special greeting for departments and individuals to share with students, alumni and other friends of the university who celebrate Spring Festival, or Chinese New Year, at the dawn of the Lunar New Year.

From traditional silk painting and paper cutting to sharp and bold graphics, the custom-designed greetings have been created each year to express well wishes to members of the Duke community who celebrate the Spring Festival. Many of them have been designed by students.

Below are the cards sent out over the past decade:

2019, Year of the Pig

2018, Year of the Dog

2017, Year of the Rooster

2016, Year of the Monkey

2015, Year of the Goat

2014, Year of the Horse

2013, Year of the Snake
