Children’s drawing exhibition

Opening:2008.7.4,20:00
Duration:2008.7.4–7.28

TCG TCG Nordica is concerning about children’s development. We want to stimulate their nature creative through various arts forms. Help them build hearth values. We plan and organize rich activities for children in each summer. This year, in the duration of International Children’s Day, an exhibition “Love children, let them fly” will hold at TCG Nordica according to the same goals with Hai Bei Kindergarten. Through letting children enjoy creating their own art, we see that they begin to improve their ability to observe and understand. They develop their imagination, the ability to express their own ideas and the reality around them, cultivating their perceptions of people, nature, culture and art.
