Confucius+Institute+Opening+Ceremony

Mrs. Xiaoshen Li and I went to the Confucius Institute Opening Ceremony on April 29, 2010 at Miami Dade College. About 200 guests attended the ceremony including the mayor of Miami and several presidents from various campuses of the college. MDC will start offering Chinese starting in the fall. It will be helpful to the local economy and the students better understand the Chinese language and culture. After the ceremony a performance by a group of professionally trained and award winning artists kept the audience alive and excited for about 40 minutes. The Confucius Art Show also attracted many guests.
