British cultural organization joins 2020 China Weeks to promote mutual exchange

Recently, KT Wong Foundation (KTWF), a British cultural organization, collaborated with the China Tourism Office in London to promote cultural exchanges between China and Britain.

On May 20, a video, Highlights from the KT Wong Foundation's China-UK Cultural Collaborations, was launched as a part the 2020 China Weeks: When Culture and Tourism Blend, an event of the Visiting China Online series of virtual shows. The event was put online in early May and will last until the late June.

The video featured KTWF's sponsored Chinese artist Shao Fan's I Dream, I Seek My Garden. As a nice manifestation of the two people's cultural exchange, the work was awarded the prestigious gold award at Britain's 2008 RHS Chelsea Flower Show.

Lady Linda Wong Davies, founder and chairman of the KTWF, provided a retrospect of the awarded project and explains its philosophical background and construction process in the video.

She said the KTWF was proud to bridge the East and West through cultural collaboration and exchange. Since 2008, the foundation has been introducing the cultural essences of both countries to each other, and letting the world know more about China. In the future, the KTWF will go on supporting the cultural exchanges between China and the UK, the US and other European and African countries.

The China Tourism Office in London extended thanks to the KTWF for its active role and important contributions to the two nation's cultural exchanges.

More cultural projects produced and promoted by the foundation will be introduced in the video in the coming weeks.
