This week, our campus became a vibrant hub of creativity as we proudly hosted the Annual Art Festival, themed "Art as Connection: Past, Present, and Possibility." The event celebrated artistic expression, innovation, and the profound ways in which art connects people across cultures and generations.

Over the course of the week, the festival welcomed students, staff, and parents, inviting the entire YCIS Chongqing community to engage with a wide array of student-created artworks.

Through these diverse projects, students explored themes of identity, culture, history, and global issues, demonstrating both creativity and critical, interdisciplinary thinking. Art became a medium for connection—linking the ideas and emotions of our young artists with their audience. To encourage reflection and dialogue, visitors were also invited to ask questions and leave feedback for the creators.

The festival received enthusiastic praise, serving as a powerful testament to both student learning and community engagement. We also awarded three Best Artworks from the Secondary. It was a proud moment that underscored the role of art in education and the strength of student voice.

We look forward to creating more interactive opportunities to showcase our students’ remarkable talents—within the YCIS community and beyond.

我们期待未来能创造更多这样的互动机会，让学生的才华在耀中社区乃至更广阔的舞台上大放异彩。
