2023 Changhua Walking Arts Festival

The curatorial theme of the 2023 Changhua Walking Art Festival is "Opening the City・Three Hundred Years of Changhua," inspired by the concept of "opening up urban spaces and embarking on a hundred years of Changhua." At its core, the festival aims to explore the urban memories and intriguing stories of Changhua's three hundred years of county establishment. This year's Changhua Walking Art Festival coincides with the 300th anniversary of Changhua's establishment as a county. It will bring the venues back to Changhua City's station, old urban areas, and Baguashan. Moreover, for the first time, a micro-space creation project is introduced, facilitating collaboration between artists and local shop spaces. The theme of "opening up" in "Cheng City" is the primary layer, echoing the concept of "open house" originating from London in 1992, where urban buildings and spaces are temporarily opened for people to explore, engaging them in the process of transformation.
