Miffy, the adorable cartoon bunny, appeals to children around the world. On December 12, Miffy in Foshan, a book-sharing meeting was held. 80 families were invited to read Miffy picture books together and took an immersive trip to the wonderful Miffy world! As other Sino-Dutch art activities, “Miffy In Foshan” aims to tell stories of Foshan and bring art culture into China, which helps promote culture exchanges. The book sharing was held by Foshan Municipal Bureau of Culture, Television, Radio, Tourism and Sports and Consulate General of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Guangzhou.

“Does Miffy like fruits?” “Does Miffy draw pictures?” … Children on the meeting had a lot of curiosity about this lovely bunny. Michiel Bierkens, Consul General of Consulate General of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Guangzhou answered the questions one by one. Together, they not only watched Miffy cartoon, read Miffy books, but also explored the Miffy World and its hometown, Netherlands.

Children are natural designers. They then got their creative juices flowing by drawing their own Miffy on a 30-meter-long painting and designed a Miffy T-shirt for the catwalk show.

According to Michael, Sino-Dutch Art Activities has been held for three consecutive years since 2017. Artists and musicians from Netherlands and Foshan had visited both countries for several times to enhance cultural exchanges between China and Netherlands. More activities are expected to be held in the following days to come.
