The Film Society at China Institute offers a series of programs for Sinophiles and Cinephiles to explore the diverse and dynamic world of Chinese film! In May and June, we will feature two back to back series on Chinese Youth in the ‘80s and ‘90s to explore the radical changes taking place in Chinese society against the backdrop of exponential economic growth and the political turmoil of 1989. For our June selections, focusing on Youth in the ‘90s, we will screen Out of Phoenix Bridge and Suzhou River.

On June 25, China Institute will partner with thirteen of our downtown neighbors for Night at the Museums, an annual event where museums and historic landmarks open their doors for an evening of fun and exploration – all within comfortable walking distance of each other. At China Institute, visitors can explore our exhibition Art of the Mountain: Through the Chinese Photographer’s Lens (with free docent-led tours), take in performances of traditional Chinese music, watch short films from China, and try their hand at brush painting. Details about the full event, including all participating museums, are available at www.NightAtTheMuseums.org. Check out all that downtown has to offer!
Mahjong Club at China Institute
Experience history, fun, and some friendly competition! China Institute’s mahjong club is open to novices and veterans looking to learn about this historic game, develop their skills, or simply find new partners to craft their Mahjong skills! Mingle with old and new friends who share an interest in all things China during the multiple gaming sessions. Light snacks and refreshments will be available. Space is very limited to ensure an engaging and participatory experience.
*Please note that all games will be played with non-denominational chips. No money will be wagered, won, or lost.
