Planning is under way for this year’s Maovember. From a “mao-a-thon” in Ritan Park to a weekend of corn toss — Saturday at Irish Volunteer in Beijing, Sunday at We Brewery in Tianjin– to a party at Hulu to events with our usual friends, things are in motion. Expect more details on Friday, October 25, when the one-week countdown to Maovember begins.

Maovember focuses on quirky events for good causes. Our 2022 partner is Library Project, which has furnished thousands of reading rooms in rural schools. Learn more about Maovember here. Follow us on Facebook and Twitter.
