Description:
A picture of children performing on stringed instruments at a Children's Palace in Shanghai, China. Following the Cultural Revolution, Children's Palaces were created all over China for children of working parents. One is now located in the Kadoorie Mansion in Shanghai and is basically designed for children to study and practice the arts after school. Gifted children attend and study dance, the theater, learn to play a musical instrument, and study computer science as well as other arts. There are crop marks on all sides of the photograph. The photograph was taken during a trip to China by a delegation from the State University of New York at Albany seeking to establish relationships with Chinese institutions.
