Photos from our recent Chinese Calligraphy + Painting Workshop!
Last week Cultural Keys was pleased to welcome Wen Meng Xin from ChinaNews.com to our culture centre! Meng Xin spent the day with us learning about what we do, as well as interviewing our co-founder AJ Donnelly. We also held a free calligraphy and painting class so she could get footage of some typical events.
See some pictures of the event below!
Meng Xin interviewed AJ about his time in China and why he started Cultural Keys.

The phrase the students learned to write was 心想事成 meaning 'may your wishes come true'.

Bamboo is an important symbol of longevity, uprightness, honour and flexibility in Chinese culture
