Spring Term 2026 - Chinese Handicraft II

This ticket is for Chinese Handicraft in the second half of the Spring 2026 term - 23 February 2026 - 23 March 2026

Course description

Many of these crafts have been practiced for centuries, and they often carry symbolic meanings and traditions that contribute to their allure. They are known for their intricate designs, attention to detail, and skilled craftsmanship.

Whether it's the delicate knots of Chinese knotting, the precise brushstrokes of calligraphy, or the fine details in porcelain and ceramics, the level of artistry is impressive.

This course will offer you an initial impression of Chinese handcraft and provide opportunities to primarily try modern Chinese handcraft, such as puppetry, paper cutting and Beijing Opera face painting.
