Writing on Turtle Shells – Qingni Chen

Strange marks were once found on turtle shells...
They turned out to be ancient writing from over 3,000 years ago!
Even more fascinating, the Terracotta Warriors’ emperor helped shape these symbols into the Chinese characters we still use today.
In this fun and engaging workshop, you'll explore these ancient symbols and even learn how to write your very first Chinese character!
Ages: 7–15 (Parents are welcome to stay and listen for free)
Tickets: $5 per person, plus booking fee
