Outside the Box – Christy Johnson

The Renascence School International students, level C6 and above, went on a field trip to the Bowers Museum of Cultural Art in Santa Ana. Current exhibitions include: Ancient Arts of China – A 5000 Year Legacy. This exhibit was curated by authorities of Chinese history and culture from the Shanghai Museum and portrays the evolution of Chinese art and culture. Empress Dowager Cixi – Selections from the Summer Palace. Empress Dowager Cixi played an important role in the center of modern Chinese history. This was a wonderful opportunity for the students to deepen their rich understanding of the culture and history of China and reinforce what they have been learning at school.
