Night art courses prove to be wildly popular
China DailyStudents take art courses at Shanghai Mass Art Center, which started its spring semester of night school on April 12. Night art courses have been a hit in Shanghai, with the 1,200 spots offered by the Shanghai Mass Art Center selling out within five minutes, the center announced recently. The center, which aims to promote art education among the general public, started its spring semester of night school on April 12 and is offering 46 evening courses covering music, art, vlog production, yoga and flower arrangement to 1,200 residents. Xu Yangyang, director of Shanghai-based Barcel Contemporary Art Museum who teaches art at the night school, said the courses are "simpler, more detailed and easier to understand than at public education courses held at the museum".
