Making the most of Beijing's rich cultural heritage and the Center's extensive network of artistic luminaries, the Beijing Center galvanizes the possibility of new perspectives and builds a platform by promoting art and culture exchanges.

The Beijing Center has hosted seminars, panel discussions, and workshops on a wide range of topics, including but not limited to children's art education, drama and theatre, design and architecture, and classical music recitals.
