On November 24, the Confucius Institute in Sofia, together with the China Cultural Center in Sofia, held the graduation ceremony for the "Chinese Language + Chinese Painting" course. People attending the event included: Chen Ying, Chinese Director of the Confucius Institute in Sofia; Ge Lina, Director of the Chinese Cultural Center in Sofia; Confucius Institute teachers; and more than 20 participants in the course.

The course lasted six weeks and adopted a "language teaching + cultural experience" model, using traditional Chinese painting as a medium to integrate Chinese language learning with artistic practice. Through a variety of methods, including technique instruction, cultural explanations, and painting, participants were able to immerse themselves in the unique charm of traditional Chinese culture while learning Chinese. All participants successfully completed the course and received completion certificates.

This "Chinese Language + Chinese Painting" course is the latest in the "Chinese +" series jointly launched by the Confucius Institute in Sofia and the Chinese Cultural Center in Sofia, following the earlier "Chinese Language + Traditional Chinese Medicine" course. In the future, the Confucius Institute in Sofia will continue to expand the "Chinese +" courses to meet the diverse learning needs of the local community.
