Event information
Join visual artist Phoebe for a hands-on journey into 剪紙 (jiǎn zhǐ), the ancient art of Chinese paper cutting. This workshop bridges cultures and brings people together through shared creativity and tradition.
Learn to craft delicate symmetrical 窗花 (chuāng huā), window flowers using traditional folding techniques while exploring classic patterns rich with cultural symbolism. Phoebe will guide you through the stories behind each design, then help you create your own freestyle pieces—blending heritage with personal expression.
Open to everyone, families and friends—come preserve traditional folk art, discover Chinese heritage, and create lasting connections through the joy of making together.
