Program Description
Event Details
Chinese calligraphy takes its inspiration from nature. Each stroke and dot represent a meaning connected to the signified item. For example, a tree starts with the symbol for wood. Children start practicing calligraphy from a young age to train their posture, mental focus and breathing as one must hold his/her breath when drawing a stroke. A slight movement may distort the stroke thus ruin the entire word. Dr. Keming Riley will lead the children through the most basic of Chinese calligraphy.
