Have Fun With Chinese Characters, March 19, 2011

Have you ever wondered  about the meaning of Chinese characters .... and what  the pattern of all of those strokes represent? Chinese characters are the oldest continuously used writing system in the world.  Join us at the Hillsborough Public Library at 2pm on Saturday, March 19, for a workshop in which you will learn the concept and history of this ancient script. Jeanette Wu will explain how the characters are formed  and how the strokes are used. Try  your hand at writing the characters yourself… there will be time to practice your new writing skill!
