Chopstick discussion, contest to be held at Norway library May 15

NORWAY — Chopsticks are more than just an eating utensil. They have a cultural and philosophical significance that few people may realize.
The Norway Memorial Library will host a program from 6:30 to 7:30 Tuesday, May 15, at which attendees can learn about the importance and appropriate use of chopsticks and practice their skills in a contest to see who can pick up the most beans in the fastest time for prizes.

Chinese sweets and souvenirs will be available.
Peng Yuan Yuan, the presenter, is from the Zhejiang Normal University Confucious Institute. From August 2016 to June 2018, she was sent by the Chinese National Hanban (i.e. Office of Chinese Language Council International) to work as a Mandarin teacher at Oxford Hills Middle School.
This program is free and open to the public. Norway Memorial Library is at 258 Maine St..
