Taichung
City has been beautifully dubbed the "Cultural
City," and under Mayor Jason Hu's guidance,
Taichung City has been actively promoting local
and international cultural events to preserve this
honorable legacy.
New and Old Taichung: Color the City
This year's event uses the theme of "New Taichung" versus "Old
Taichung," represented by WuQuan Parkway and
the Taichung Winery respectively. The goal is to
lead citizens to discover the painted corners of
the city, to magnify the beauty around them, and
to show them how to cherish and preserve our colorful
city.
A Different Perspective of Old Color
The bus for Taichung's Fine Arts Humanistic Walkway
Activity will depart every Sunday in September,
each time welcoming 40 passengers on-board. Each
tour will be accompanied by a scholar for a visit
to the Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts's Sculpture Garden,
WuQuan Parkway, the Mayor's Residence, Stock20
Art Gallery, the Lins' Ancestral Temple, Taichung
Harbor Road's autumn maple trees, Hwei-Lai site,
Wan-Heh Temple, and other sites, to find the true
color of Taichung City.
"Magic of Color" Camp
This will guide students through a world of color,
to observe the city's aesthetics and to experience
the infinite possibilities of combinations of colors,
strokes, other art techniques, and imagination.
Shades of the City, Paint Bright the Future
Mayor Hu, working in collaboration with respected
scholars of Taichung City, will discuss the distinguishing
characteristics of the city and how to build a
beautiful city, to make it better deserve its name
of the "Cultural City."
Let's Paint the Parks
In cooperation with the Artistic Pathway Shopping
Street Managing Committee, a clothing-painting
event will be held, and there will be a Fine Food
Art Show.
Billboards of Life
We invite you to join renowned movie billboard
artist Wang Shui-heh and others to compose billboards,
using the theme of "Innovate Old Architectures,
Discover a New Taichung." When the artwork
is finished, it will be hung on the outer walls
of the Cultural Center as a symbol of the passing
of aesthetics through generations.
The Freedom of Creation
We invite the artists of Taichung City to the Taichung
Winery to create artworks which join art, music,
and dance.
How long since you looked up to admire the moon
in the city? "Color the City Art Festival" cordially
invites you on the night of the Mid-Autumn Moon
Festival to a magical moonlit party at the Taichung
Winery, and passes the spotlight over to the next
major event, the Jazz Music Festival!
