Join esea ArtClub from 11 am on Thursday 19th September for a complimentary creative workshop tailored for East and Southeast Asian elders (aged 50 and over). This September, as part of ESEA Heritage Month, we'll be welcoming both new and existing ArtClub members to come together for art-based activities in a Cantonese Opera Singing workshop.
Led in Cantonese by Kamling Fung and Yuen Wah Leung, participants will delve into the fundamentals of Cantonese opera, including ‘Gongche notation,’ ‘Dingban,’ and various vocal techniques.
During this session, we will revisit beloved classics from previous workshops, participants also learn the classic Cantonese Opera 'The Summer Snow' - 'Ten Embroidered Scented Sachets'.
Materials and light refreshments will be provided throughout the workshop. Attendance is free of charge, but due to limited capacity, advance booking is essential to secure your place.
