As part of the Dragon Boat Festival traditions, people hang calamus and mugwort and wear fragrant sachets to ward off evil spirits and repel mosquitoes. Online registration will start at 12:00 am on June 2 and there will be 3 rounds each day until the quota is full. As a result, the Northern Branch of National Palace Museum will allow the general public to DIY the limited edition "Painting Tiger Picture" sachets of the National Palace Museum on June 22 and 23.
A "Five Poison Fan" DIY project will also be held on June 22 at the Northern Branch. By employing stamps with images of the "Five Poisons"' scorpions, snakes, centipedes, spiders, and toads, the public may use their imagination to create five-poison fans and the tickets can be traded for materials.
