The Calgary Chinese Cultural Centre is a special community centre for the Community of Chinatown, the Chinese community and the citizens of Calgary. Its objectives are to serve as a community centre and hub for Calgarians to meet and socialize, and to undertake educational and recreational programs and activities to enrich the lives of all Calgarians.
As a charitable non-profit organization, we rely heavily on dedicated volunteers and community members to organize and participate in various interesting and meaningful programs and events to celebrate our heritages and diversity. We hope that these educational and life-enrichment programs will also have the effect of fostering goodwill and friendship among all members of the general community to cultivate a harmonious society that defines who we are, as Canadians, to the world.
*A Chinese idiom literally translated as “let a hundred flowers bloom, in ten thousand shades of violet and a thousand shades of red”, describing an environment or a process in which every idea and school of thought are expressed and articulated, and every artistic skill and endeavour is celebrated.

Erhu Workshop
A rare opportunity for Calgary's erhu players! The workshop will be taught by the principal erhuist of the China National Traditional Orchestra (中央民族樂團), Mr. Lu Jian-Min (who will also be performing on Oct 26 at Theatre 1308).
The 2-hour workshop is designed for erhu players of all skill levels to learn and improve their playing. The workshop will focus on playing technique, learning a piece of repertoire, as well as a Q&A and short interview with the artist. The workshop will be in Chinese (mandarin) with a live English translator.
