Moulding a new future for Chinese folk art

29 Feb 2024

 

  

In today’s episode of We.Connect we talk with Kevin. Kevin graduated from Wellington College International Shanghai in 2019. After earning a degree at the University of Southern California, he returned to China with a reinvigorated passion for China’s many timeless artistic traditions. He is now committed to preserving, promoting and developing Huishan clay figures. At his newly opened café in Wuxi, he provides a venue where local artists can showcase these distinctive works and introduce this traditional Chinese folk art to a new generation of enthusiasts.

 

To hear Kevin’s story, please watch our video!

We call our graduates ‘Old Wellingtonians’ or OWs because, in our eyes, they never really leave us. Once a Wellingtonian, always a Wellingtonian. And it is in this spirit that we have launched We.Connect, a new alumni platform that brings the Wellington College China Community a wide range of benefits — from networking opportunities to mentorship programmes and so much more.

The launch of We.Connect is an exciting new step for Wellington College China. It will empower our pupils with the resources they need to build a successful and fulfilling future. It will be a vibrant community of like-minded individuals who support and mentor each other. Most importantly, it will provide fertile soil where lifelong connections can flourish.
