Located in the northwest of Hefei Sanshigang Township, Cuigang Village, about 20 kilometers from the city, is an ordinary village located at the junction of three counties. Since 2012, artists have successively settled in the local area and built studios with different styles. Since then, the fame of "Cuigang Art Village" has not gone away, and many tourists have come to visit.
Rural cultural construction is an important part of rural revitalization, and art education is one of the most important ways to promote rural cultural construction. In order to allow more children in rural areas to be exposed to art classrooms, Cuigang Art Village "HuanyiFang" launched a rural public welfare education assistance activity. As soon as the concept of the public welfare assistance activity was proposed, it was supported by many artists stationed in Cuigang village, and these artists and teachers who were enthusiastic about rural public welfare work stood up and gathered in this colorful courtyard to bring one vivid and interesting art lesson after another to the children in the village in their own way.
At the end of 2021, the first season of "Spring of the Cattle Herding Class" began. It lasted a month, spanning the end of the year and the beginning of the year. These children are all rural children, through a month of study, learn about painting, calligraphy, handicrafts and other knowledge, improve the ability to appreciate art.
"Rural revitalization needs to focus not only on farmers' livelihoods, but also on the growth of their children. The art village has changed a lot recently, and the resources such as the art museum in the village are also very good, we should not only entertain ourselves, but also hope to be able to feed the village, do something for the villagers to do, so that children can know more about art. We are willing to open a window for rural children and find support points for the integrated development of new and old villagers in the art village. Teacher Zhang Bin, founder of HuanyiFang, said.
Painting, calligraphy, craftsmanship, art appreciation... The teachers explained carefully and patiently treated every child who came to listen to the lessons. The simplified images, harmonious pictures, expressive lines, bold use of color, and the innovation in the unconscious state of children's paintings often amaze adults.
Mr. Xie Ping, a resident artist, also donated his own paints, and the artists are expressing their expectations and love for art in their own way. "Short-term art tutoring may be limited in improving painting techniques, but the impact on children is far-reaching. Cultivating children's aesthetic ability and correct guidance from an early age is beneficial to children's future growth. An initiation education may affect an individual child's life. Teacher Xie Ping said.
Whether painting with paint, applying a mask, or doing handicrafts, children also get emotional satisfaction when they participate in art.
"'Art revitalizes the countryside' is not an empty slogan, as a member of the art village, you have to do something for the village." Teacher Fang Jun said.
The staff of the Cuigang Village Committee also joined the team of public welfare students and became volunteers. "Public welfare education conveys love and creates hope." Seeing the recruitment information released by the art teacher in the village, we actively docked with the teachers in the village, organized the children in the jurisdiction to participate in teaching activities, so that the art education in the countryside could develop better and faster, so that the children in the jurisdiction could be grateful for the warmth of public welfare, and at the same time, we hoped to sow the seeds of love in this land and pass on the positive energy of the society.
