While promoting traditional Chinese culture, the Art Center also integrates modern advanced educational concepts. They provide art workshops focused on Chinese Intangible Cultural Heritage for students, as well as A-Level and IGCSE courses. Based on the school philosophy of "inviting in and going out", the Art Center regularly invites art experts and masters to give students wonderful lectures and workshops on campus, and regularly takes the students off campus to experience a wide range of art specialty courses and studies, including ceramics, carpentry, jewelry-making, and other art and crafts. These workshops are in cooperation with top art schools in China and abroad. Their primary mission is to inspire students to continue their love of the arts, and the Art Center's teachers are committed to helping students expand their horizons and their artistic thinking.
