Last Friday, Tel Aviv University and the Confucius Institute partnered to host the annual Chinese-Israeli picnic. It was an afternoon of arts and crafts, surveys and more importantly, delicious food! We brought deviled eggs.
The banner says: "China-Israel Young-People Communication-Meeting." And we did just that!
I'm not sure what these were, but they were delicious!
Real, live Chinese people!
They had a variety of games to play.
You could paint Beijing Opera masks.
The paint was even authentic Chinese!
Here's one in progress, similar to Eddie Belfour's Blackhawk goalie mask.
He's adding Payot to this one.
There was also a card game we played, where your partner describes what the card is, and you guess the noun.
We had stiff competition.
Plenty of intercultural discussion. "What do you mean you don't eat Ju-ro?"
Lot's of fun mingling.
You know it's Chinese because of the lanterns.
The Confucius Institutes were implemented by the Chinese government to try and educate the world about Chinese culture.
They have Confucius Institutes at most major world Universities.
Fun times, playing in the sand!
"I want to grab this!"
There was an assembly and prizes were given to the winners.
As always, it was a great time hanging out with the Confucius Institute and TAU students!
