On January 10th, as a core highlight of the 10th "Yangcheng Campus Aesthetic Education Festival," the inaugural Guangzhou Campus Cantonese Culture and Arts Exhibition and Performance concluded successfully at the Hongxiannv Grand Theater of Guangzhou Yueju Opera Theater. This is the first large-scale campus arts event themed around Cantonese culture, aiming to embed excellent traditional Chinese culture in the hearts of young people.

At the event, a vibrant fusion of tradition and modernity sparked unique creativity. Classic nursery rhymes like "Bright Moonlight" and "Heavy Rain" were revitalized through innovative arrangements, while traditional Cantonese opera excerpts were perfectly integrated with sound, lighting, and visual effects. The participation of renowned Cantonese opera artists elevated the artistic caliber of the event. National first-grade actress and Cantonese opera performing artist Guo Fengnv shared the stage with students from Gangcheng Primary School in Nansha District to present "Liang Hongyu," while Zeng Xiaomin, Chairman of Guangdong Province Iheairisi Association, performed "Ode to Lychee" alongside eight students.

Zeng Xiaomin remarked, "To build a cultural IP for Cantonese culture, we must deeply explore local historical figures, narratives, and customs, transforming these elements into content that is easy for the youth to understand and share. Through various artistic means and forms, we can tell the story of Cantonese culture more effectively, allowing more people to appreciate its charm and uniqueness."

In addition, the event featured a Cantonese Arts Exhibition, which showcased the vibrancy of intangible cultural heritage, featuring 30 works that encompassed over 20 Lingnan heritage crafts such as paper cutting, Canton Porcelain, olive stone carving, and lime sculpture. Students from Huangpu District recreated "Lingnan in a Manchuria Window" with paper cutting, while students from Panyu District presented "Grasping Wealth" through olive stone carving. Students from Tianhe District innovatively combined Cantonese embroidery with patchwork skills in their artworks.

广府文化在校园“潮”起来

1月10日，作为第十届“羊城学校美育节”核心亮点活动，“粤韵新承・艺绽芳华”广州市首届校园广府文化艺术展演在广州粤剧院红线女大剧院圆满落幕。本次活动是首次以广府文化为主题举办的大型校园艺术盛会，让中华优秀传统文化在青少年心中扎根结果。

展演现场，传统与现代碰撞出别样火花。《月光光》《落雨大》等经典童谣经全新编排焕发新意，传统粤剧选段与声光电技术完美融合。粤剧名家的倾情助力，让校园展演更添艺术分量。国家一级演员、粤剧表演艺术家郭凤女与广州市南沙区岗城小学学生同台演绎《梁红玉》，广东省戏剧家协会主席曾小敏则与8位学生共同唱响《荔枝颂》。

曾小敏表示：“要打造广府文化的文化IP，首先就要深挖本土历史人物、历史故事和风俗等，将这些元素整理成青少年容易理解和传播的内容，通过各种艺术手段和形式去呈现。相信这样可以讲好广府文化故事，也可以让更多人去感受到广府文化的魅力和独特性。”

同时，粤艺展陈彰显非遗活力，30件作品囊括剪纸、广彩、榄雕、灰塑等20余项岭南非遗技艺——黄埔区学生以剪纸复刻《满洲窗里的岭南》，番禺区学生用榄雕呈现《揽雕百财》，天河区学生作品将广绣与拼布创新融合。
