June 29 — Opening of “Two Worlds, One Language Through Art” to friends (this means you)
The Indianapolis Art Center presents two months of Chinese art, workshops, music, films, dancing, talks … perhaps it’s a great time to be Chinese living in Indiana, but it’s an even greater time to want to learn about China while living in Indiana. Be there from the beginning, and go back repeatedly.
When: Sunday June 29, 2:00-4:00 PM
Where: Indianapolis Art Center 820 East 67th Street Indianapolis, IN 46220
Even if you couldn’t come up with $100 for a ticket for the opening gala the night before, you can still be part of the opening of “Two Worlds, One Language Through Art.” You’ll get Chinese music, food, dancing. Here are some of the components of this excellent cluster of exhibitions:
