Wednesday the 11th HKiEd had their annual International Fair. The International Fair is an opportunity for the campus to come together and celebrate it's diversity. There are students from Korea, Finland, Germany, Malashia, Sweden, Japan, US, Thiland, and so many more. This was a time for us to get together and share our "home" with the rest of campus. Kaitlin, J, and I were asked to put together a booth promoting Butler and the U.S.A. We had a blast!!
Our table had oreos, mac & cheese, Butler gear, rice krispy treats, and a Lucky Draw (raffe). The Hong Kong students went nuts! They were fascinated by the food and loved the pencils and could not get enough of the lucky draw.
Thursday the 12th J and I headed to the HK Cultural Centre for a 4 piano concert! The center is celebrating 20 years and these 4 pianists premiered at the hall 20 years ago. They were back for a celebration concert. They played all sorts of repertoire - Bach Concerto for 4 Pianos, Variations of Happy Birthday, Dvorak, etc. Below are pics of the center as well as the theatre the concert was in. The HK do not like for people to take pictures of their performance spaces. I have tried to sneak a couple and promptly get told, "no photo, no photo." And of course they were taken without permission :-)
Check out the pipe organ!!
