Now Shenzhen   |   June 5, 2023
RoundUp2022

Dear Shenzhen-er,

This week in local news the Shenzhen Internationtal Cultural Industries (ICIF) Fair begins this wednesday and here's a nice list of upcoming peformances in town (including the Phantom of the Opera in Bao'an!). Lastly, here's a little fluff about local expat academics exploring Longhua's Art Village and Printmaking workshop in Guanlan.

Big thanks to Billy and Here DG for putting on their annual pool party in DongGuan. It was inspriing to see so many in our community gathering once again for a good time - headcount is still coming in but I believe attendance was just shy of 2000. We'll be bringing a similar event to our own neck of the woods before too long - stay tuned for news on that!

Plenty of events going on this week. Organizers seem a bit sluggish publishing there events this week so make sure to bookmark and visit our events page later this week to stay in the know. If you're interested in a little cerebral stimulation consider joining our MindBody Wellness Club on Sunday afternoons.

Consider giving your A/C a nice warm hug - you'll need her love this week!

-David & The NowShenzhen Team
