The China Millennium Monument in Beijing hosted the 2024 Art Night and opening ceremony for the 7th Traditional Craft Revival Exhibition on Friday.
The exhibition comprised 16 display areas, each presenting different forms of traditional crafts, including plant dyeing and pottery-making from Qinzhou in the Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region.
Apart from the exhibition, the Art Night merged lantern displays, market stalls, hands-on intangible cultural heritage experiences, performances and fashion runways.
Inheritors of intangible cultural heritage were invited to give live craft demonstrations, such as paper-cutting, shadow puppetry and snuff bottle painting.
The Art Night also served as a promotional platform for many Chinese cities, which showcased their regional culture through special food tastings and music and dance performances.
