Children of Hangzhou: Connecting with China October 28, 2008

Join kids from Boston's sister city in China - Hangzhou - for a close up experience of China today. Explore their school, home, theater, and a farm, all set against a beautiful backdrop of traditional Chinese paintings. Try out some of their everyday activities: write Chinese characters, cook with grandmother, explore computer games, plant rice, and perform in a traditional Chinese opera! Hangzhou combines the best of old and new, rustic countryside and modern urban center. This unique exhibit presents China from the viewpoint of four young people.
