Matteo Ricci Adventure Workshop

The Asia Society Manager, Ms. Sally Yeung, came over last Sunday Sept 14 and conducted the Matteo Ricci Workshop. 

A group of CCD children watched a presentation on the work of Asia Society, the recent exhibition of Caravaggio’s painting Supper at Emmaus, and cultural and scientific influences Matteo Ricci bought to the East. 

They learnt about the long journey that Matteo Ricci made from Italy to China and made adventure pop up postcards. They also made a kaleidoscope, which Matteo Ricci first brought to China as well as the prism it contains.  Both parents and children had a great time!
