In order to enrich the lives of children in welfare homes, broaden their horizons, and help them integrate into society, recently, the Zhongyuan New Era Civilization Practice Center and the Zhengzhou Charity Federation's "Love Handicraft" project organized small volunteers to join hands with the children of Zhengzhou Children's Welfare Institute to walk into the Zhengzhou Textile Industry Site Museum together, opening a special journey of exploring the memory of Zhengzhou city.
The gate of the former No. 3 National Cotton Factory, the old-style office building, workshop, the carding machine, shuttle loom and other textile equipment used by the workers at that time, old photos and old objects, accompanied by the emotional introduction of the narrator, the children seem to have traveled to the Zhengzhou Cotton Spinning City in the fifties and sixties. With the help of young volunteers, the children of the orphanage also turned into textile workers, winding the warp beams on the shuttle loom through the shuttle yarn into colorful rolls of cloth. By touching the traces of history and immersive experience, the children deeply felt the glory and changes of Zhengzhou's textile industry.
Enlighten wisdom and promote thinking, learn from each other and study together. This journey of exploring urban memory is just the beginning, and the Central Plains District New Era Civilization Practice Center will coordinate various forces and resources in the society to organize a series of colorful research activities such as scientific exploration, intangible cultural heritage inheritance, and historical and cultural tours together with the children of the Children's Welfare Institute.
