The Cambodian community will ring in the new year at an outdoor celebration April 21 at the Peralta Hacienda Historical Park.

Under the banner, "Rhythm of the Refugee: A Cambodian Journey of Healing," the celebration will feature traditional food, activity booths, games for kids and adults, crafts for sale and a big lineup of performers.

Ninety-two-year-old Nhep Prok, one of the sole surviving master musicians of pre-Pol Pot Cambodia, will play with his youth ensemble. A new generation of Cambodian hip-hop artists will perform a unique dance style, and Raymond Sin will sing Cambodian pop and karaoke.

Festival goers can tour the exhibit "Rhythm of the Refugee" between performance.

Admission is free. Peralta Hacienda Historical Park is located at 2465 34th Ave.
