Beijing, November 3 (Xinhua) — An event dedicated to cultural exchanges between Chinese and Russian teenagers in 2025 was held recently in Dalian, Liaoning Province, northeast China, under the theme "Hand in Hand with Everyone for Cultural Mutual Enrichment," Partners magazine reported.

During the five-day program (from October 28 to November 1), young people from the two countries jointly participated in a number of unique cultural exchange events.

At a joint art exhibition, young participants chose the brush as a medium, engaging in a "silent dialogue" through color and creativity. In interactive activities—a calligraphy masterclass, an introduction to traditional opera, and a game of shuttlecock—Russian schoolchildren, supported by Chinese students, experienced the unique charm of traditional Chinese culture. At a friendly evening, young artists performed together on stage, using music and dance to vividly convey the profound meaning of the motto "friendship knows no bounds."

The event was organized by Partners magazine, with co-organizers including the Dalian Art Institute, the Liaoning Provincial School of Tourism Management, the Dalian campus of Shafstone International College, and the Dalian Golden Triangle Art Gallery. Media support was provided by the Russian newspaper Moskovsky Komsomolets.
