The Nantong House of Literature and Art recently hosted an art exhibition, showcasing the works by local artists.

The exhibition displayed 60 photography works and 19 others created during last year's group visit.

In 2024, the Nantong Federation of Literary and Art Circles carried out artistic sketching and creative activities, organising literary and art professionals to search for inspiration in Qidong, Hai'an, Rudong, Haimen, Jiangxi, Chongqing, and other places. While enjoying the beauty of the country's rivers and mountains, they also focused on urban construction and contributed to rural revitalization.

Some of the works draw inspiration from the daily lives of different cities, some are inspired by the forests, mountains, and waters, and some reflect the local customs and practices. They showcase Chinese cities' natural beauty, humanistic beauty, and cultural charm from various perspectives.
