In fact, there are some historically protected buildings in Shangyin. The reason why the school door is opened is to make our school's teaching better integrate into this society and the city, and contribute to the construction of our urban culture in Shanghai and the creation of Asia's performing arts capital. At the same time, I also hope that everyone can better understand the teaching of higher art colleges, and the teaching practice of some of our classrooms will be limited to the public to improve the cultural literacy of the city of Shanghai. ”
