Ground Floor

Members from Wai Yin Chinese Women’s Society Elders group worked together with ceramic artist Steve Dixon to create a sculpture of a Dragon Boat. The aim was to create a work of art that expressed pride in Chinese culture by heralding the rich history of ceramic art in China and reflecting the cultural and physical journey from China to Manchester. The Dragon Boat is on display in the Pride section of the CIS Manchester Gallery.
