AIO Chair’s message
Welcome to the Art Institute of the Orient !
This is with pride and happiness that we are officially opening the doors of the Art Institute of the Orient.
Located on Shamian island, in the historical heart of Guangzhou, our centenary Heritage building, beautifully restored, offers a unique environment for meeting, learning, experiencing, exchanging, and discovering.
At the heart of the AIO’s mission, lies a deep commitment to promoting dialogue and collaboration between East and West, fostering connections through culture and arts.
Our institute offers art and language classes and workshops, hosts and organizes cultural events such as art exhibitions, concerts and performances, as well as educational or artistic conferences and discussions panels.
We are proud to collaborate with local institutions, schools and colleges, international schools, consulates and embassies, as well as prestigious educational institutions and diverse cultural and artistic institutions and associations.
Our extensive beaux-arts buildings allow us to conduct a great variety of activities, including a European-style café, a flower shop, a library, great art studios, exhibition and conference halls.
We are very much looking forward to your visit!
