My First Artistic Memory in Shanghai - As someone new to Shanghai and eager to learn more about the arts, this was an incredibly welcoming experience. The guide was both friendly and deeply knowledgeable, offering thoughtful insight into the craftsmanship behind mother-of-pearl works. She also shared the symbolic meaning behind my brooch of choice—the lotus—which made the piece feel even more personal and significant. The space itself was warm and accommodating, with tea and snacks provided and soft, comforting music playing in the background. Conversation flowed easily as we discussed the history of the art form, its cultural significance, and other traditional Chinese artistic practices. The instructor even demonstrated her own work, creating a hairpin adorned with intricate, colorful floral details that showcased remarkable precision and artistry. Participants are encouraged to freely customize the colors and design of their brooch. Once completed, the staff carefully package the piece and even provide extra mother-of-pearl chips and adhesive gel in case any pieces shift during transport, allowing for easy repairs. Overall, it was a meaningful and beautifully curated experience. I left not only with a timeless piece of jewelry, but with a deeper appreciation for the artistry and tradition behind it.

Enriching opportunity to touch upon both the past and present Chinese craftsmanship and artistry. - A great way to get hands-on experience blending traditional techniques with a modern twist. I’ve also learned a lot about Chinese history and modern methods of cultural object preservation Many thanks to Wendi and Zhang Mo! I’m looking forward to attending other workshops they offer!
