Chinese Calligraphy at the temple
Details
🌿 Join us this Saturday, July 26 for a Chinese Calligraphy Workshop at the temple!
Led by Ms. Lisa, who began calligraphy in childhood and further honed her skills through advanced studies at Chinese art institutions in Beijing. She brings passion and years of experience teaching this traditional art.
