Our goal is to elevate the brand of A Many-Splendored Life in Yunnan and foster a deeper cultural bond and collaborative efforts between China and the United States.”

San Gabriel City Councilmember Tony Ding once studied in China and graduated from Shanghai Jiao Tong University. In his speech, he mentioned that Yunnan is one of the global biodiversity hotspots and has rich ethnic cultures. Since childhood, he has always wanted to visit Yunnan and experience the unique charm of Shangri-La. He hoped that in the future, both sides can establish more cultural exchange platforms to foster better communication between China and the United States.

At the launch ceremony, Yunnan artists wowed the crowd with a vibrant display of ethnic and regional dances, giving attendees a taste of "A Many-Splendored Life in Yunnan." The room was filled with periodic rounds of applause and admiration, bringing the atmosphere to a climax.

"I love cultural exchanges." American artist Emily spent some time during the summer of 2023 in Yunnan traveling and making art. "Last year, while in Kunming, many experiences gave me inspirations. Today's cultural exchange reminds me of the leisurely days in Kunming laughing with friends and painting. Although I am now in Los Angeles, my heart is still in Yunnan."
