People throw vibrant colours, enjoy cultural performances, great music and food with family and friends. This event was focused on bringing life and colour to Rangiora town and celebrating its diversity and energy! </h3><h3>The festival is all about bringing the community together! </h3><h3>Thousands of people enjoined this exciting community festival that reflects the multicultural nature of our North Canterbury home. It has provided opportunities for the many ethnic and cultural groups in the area to make a connection with the wider community through food, music, performance in an exciting and fun way!</h3><h3>Festival Philosophy: To recognize and celebrate not only the strong Maori and European heritage of the region but also the increasing growth of "other" New Zealanders as well. </h3><h3>Of course, along with fantastic food, drink, dance, music and performances, the highlight will be the “throwing” of vibrant colours by those attending the festival! Along with colour cannons and colour foam, this throwing of colours (natural corn starch powder and food grade natural dyes) was one of the most visually exciting events to come to North Canterbury!</h3> <h3>别具中国特色的歌舞表演首次在 Waimakariri 的市镇 Rangiora 登台亮相,为当天多彩的活动添彩!<br></h3><h3>新西兰湖北经贸文化协会 刘玉兰 副会长(前排右一)和基督城姐妹们精彩欢快的舞蹈。</h3><h3>张容江 摄影</h3> <h3>天真可爱的华人孩子表演苗妹舞</h3><h3>翁建强 摄影</h3> <h3>我像不像恩施的苗妹呀?</h3><h3>张江容 摄影<br></h3> <h3>Waimakariri地广人稀,平时少有大型活动。那天,数千名居民远道而来,伴着音乐,吃喝玩乐,欢呼喝彩!</h3><h3>翁建强 摄影</h3> <h3>带彩的和不带彩的华人</h3><h3>晴阳 摄影</h3> <h3>动感娃娃</h3><h3>翁建强 摄影</h3> <h3>优雅的旗袍秀</h3><h3>翁建强 摄影</h3> <h3></h3><h3>中华传统舞狮</h3>翁建强 摄影 <h3>中华传统舞龙</h3><h3>晴阳 摄影</h3> <h3>新中文化和谐共融</h3><h3>翁建强 摄影</h3> <h3>中华传统文化 -- 龙的传人</h3><h3>(北坎特伯雷报纸剪页)</h3> <h3>中华传统舞狮舞龙,中华靓女旗袍走秀,首次在 Rangiora 城镇亮相!</h3><h3>点击观看视频。</h3> <h3>Waimakariri 市长 David 和夫人 Marilyn 也沾了彩!</h3><h3>(北坎特伯雷报纸剪页)</h3> <h3>好一片多族裔人民和睦相处的氛围!</h3><h3>翁建强 摄影</h3> <h3>两年前,新西兰湖北经贸文化协会曾联系、推动和帮助了友城的缔结,开启了文化经贸交流活动的新篇章,经贸文化交流活动接连不断。</h3> <h3>多彩节的前一天,“土家风情飘大洋” 恩施摄影艺术展览在姊妹城市的城镇 Rangiora 隆重开展。</h3><h3>新西兰湖北经贸文化协会副会长 秦工 挥墨题字</h3> <h3>此次摄影艺术展由 Waimakariri 市政府和新西兰湖北经贸文化协会合举办。在 Rangiora 的艺术厅展出,为“多彩节”开场点睛。</h3> <h3>市长 David Ayers (右一)主持开幕式。</h3><h3>翁建强 摄影</h3> <h3>Waimakariri 地区的新西兰国会议员 Matt Doocey(右一)为开幕式致辞。</h3><h3>晴阳 摄影</h3> <h3>中国驻Christchurch总领馆汪志坚总领事(右)、新西兰湖北经贸文化协会会长周亚非博士(左)分别在开幕式上讲话并认真观看了展出作品。</h3><h3>翁建强 摄影</h3> <h3>当地市政议员、社团组织负责人、文化界人士和华人代表等60多人应邀出席了开幕式。</h3><h3>Waimakariri Community Development Facilitator, (社区发展负责人),本次大型活动的组织者之一 Denise Wiggins 女士 (左二)</h3><h3>翁建强 摄影</h3> <h3>新西兰湖北经贸文化协会副会长 晴阳 与参加摄影展开幕式的当地小朋友</h3><h3>翁建强 摄影</h3> <h3></h3><h3>新西兰湖北经贸文化协会会长 周亚非 博士</h3>新西兰湖北经贸文化协会副会长 晴阳<h3>Waimakariri 市政府议员 Kirstyn Barnett</h3><h3>Oxford Promotions Action Committee 主席 Barry Cuttance</h3><h3>Oxford Promotions Action Committee 副主席 Shirley Farrell</h3><h3>翁建强 摄影</h3> <h3>在 Waimakariri 高中留学的中国学生</h3><h3>翁建强 摄影</h3> <h3></h3><h3>坎特伯雷大学 博士生(左)</h3>新西兰湖北经贸文化协会副会长 晴阳 (右)<h3>翁建强 摄影</h3> <h3>市长David Ayers、Waimakariri地区的新西兰国会议员Matt Doocey,中国驻Christchurch总领馆汪志坚总领事、新西兰湖北经贸文化协会会长周亚非博士 为摄影展开幕剪彩,庆贺Waimakariri和恩施结为姊妹城市两周年!</h3><h3>翁建强 摄影</h3> <h3>本次展览将长达一个多月,通过艺术视觉,让姊妹城的市民了解、感受不同的中国文化,环境、人文和生活习俗,增进友谊。</h3><h3>翁建强 摄影</h3> <h3>On 24th March 2018, Enshi vision in Oceania photo exhibition co-organized by Waimakariri District council, NZ Hubei Economic Trade Cultural Association and Rangiora library was exhibited at the Gallery Chamber of Rangiora. </h3><h3>Mayor David Ayers, Matt Doocey, Member of Parliament of NZ at Waimakariri District, Consul General Zhijian Wang, the Chinese Consulate in Christchurch, and Dr Yafei Zhou, President of NZ Hubei Economic Trade Cultural Association, respectively delivered speeches and cut the ribbon for the exhibition to mark the second anniversary of the sister cities of Waimakariri and Enshi. </h3><h3>Two years ago, the NZ Hubei Economic Trade Cultural Association had linked and facilitated the sister city relationship between the two.</h3><h3>These photos are to be exhibited there for over a month. Through different perception, the citizens of Waimakariri will enjoy and have a better understanding of Chinese culture, environment, people and customs.</h3><h3></h3><h3>Written by Yang Zhou, NZ Hubei Economic Trade Cultural Association </h3><h3>Photo taken by JianQiang Weng</h3> <h3>开幕式结束后,Waimakariri 市政府、图书馆和北坎特博雷移民部门、公民咨询局和新西兰湖北经贸文化协会等单位合办了华人社团信息讲座,穿插着“橄榄树”语言学校与到会者的互动活动。</h3> <h3>The main benefit from the Enshi relationship is expected to be cultural, promoting an increased understanding of Chinese culture that will be strengthened further through school connections.</h3><h3>Given the huge growth in Chinese tourists to New Zealand in recent years, with direct flights now from China to Christchurch, the relationship provides opportunities to enhance our understanding of Chinese culture so we can better cater for their needs.</h3><h3></h3><h3>People attending this event will have the opportunity to learn about services available from: Waimakariri Libraries, Waimakariri District Council, Creative Communities, Citizens Advice Bureau, and the Migrants and Newcomers group. Families are encouraged to attend and there will be a Storytimes session, and fun activities provided by the Olive Tree Language School, to keep children engaged while the formal speeches occur, to be followed by a taste of featured Chinese food.</h3> <h3>中国驻Christchurch总领馆汪志坚总领事(前右一)也参加了这项活动,与当地华人亲切交谈,了解他们的学习生活情况,还给图书馆的小朋友赠送了吉祥狗。</h3><h3>新西兰湖北经贸文化协会 佘雨蓉 理事(前右二)等人正在聆听华人社区讲座。</h3><h3>翁建强 摄影<br></h3> <h3>交流讨论</h3><h3>翁建强 摄影</h3> <h3>认真学习</h3><h3>翁建强 摄影</h3> <h3>Waimakariri市政府代表向华人介绍他们的相关服务机构和建房及租房信息,帮助新移民在新西兰和Waimakariri安居乐业。</h3><h3>这场活动,体现了新中政府及相关单位对华人移民的友善关心和真诚照顾! </h3><h3>翁建强 摄影</h3> <h3>最后,大家一边品尝中华美食,体验中华文化,一边交流信息,收获真不小! </h3><h3>翁建强 摄影</h3> <h3>这是一次非常开心又有意义的大型周末活动,华人的融入,为这多彩的主流活动增添了光彩!</h3><h3>翁建强 摄影</h3> <h3>转发</h3><h3>与新西兰湖北经贸文化协会保持联系的恩施职业学院艺术系 别振宇 主任的留言:</h3><h3>摄出情怀,影出文化!小图片,大友谊!让新西兰有恩施,让恩施融入新西兰!</h3><h3><br></h3><h3>转发</h3><h3>2017年曾在基督城 坎大孔子学院工作过,来自恩施的 卢好 老师的留言:</h3><h3>说心里话,看完视频我好感动!这次活动办得太好了!能看到中国文化传播海外实在是太兴奋!全国这么多地方,恩施 这个小小的不引人注目的山区,视觉影像能远赴大洋洲,让另一个国家的人了解她,真的是太不容易的事了!</h3><h3>作为恩施人,我真的很想很想对你们说声:感谢!</h3><h3><br></h3><h3>转发</h3><h3>基督城新中友协 Matt 先生的留言:</h3><h3>Great event!
