Starting this Friday (Oct. 16), NeochaEDGE is collaborating with Knowledge & Innovation Community (KIC) to organize 4 weekends of Chinese creativity and fun as part of the Search for Creative City (寻城记) event series. We’ve gathered 16 of Shanghai’s most interesting creative groups to exhibit, perform, host games, sell products, and just have a great time with everyone who attends.
Stop by to get a robot massage, discover secret stories in flying balloons, check out various Chinese indie designers / creatives’ work, experience a mimicking magic voodoo mirror, join in on a DIY crafts workshop, fool around in a live / interactive photo booth, compete in design competitions, or have a drink at the Japanese Cosplay maid cafe.
In addition to the creative group area, NeochaEDGE is bringing together 7 of Shanghai’s most prolific graffiti artists for daily live-art performances. There will also be a 50-stall flea market and daily musical performances by Chinese bands, including BIZ on the opening night. See you there. /// SL
