Colours of China

Join the Simcoe Chinese Association for a vibrant celebration of heritage and community at Barrie Culture Days! Attendees can expect a captivating stage showcase featuring 10 diverse performances, including high-energy traditional martial arts, graceful Qipao and silk fan dances, and spirited Mongolian, Tibetan, and Xinjiang folk dances. Alongside the stage lineup, visitors of all ages are invited to an interactive, hands-on Tie-dye (扎染) workshop—a traditional non-material cultural heritage art form where you can learn pattern-dyeing techniques directly from local artisans. Whether you come to experience the lively music and dance or try your hand at traditional crafts, this family-friendly event offers an unforgettable cultural experience for everyone!
