That's Tianjin picks the best thing to do in the city each month.
Apr 9 & 10: 'Wood Engraving' Exhibition
'Wood Engraving' is now on display at the Tianjin Academy of Fine Arts (TAFA). This show is a collaborative effort between the printmaking departments of TAFA and CAFA (Central Academy of Fine Arts, Beijing), with additional backing from the International Academic Printmaking Alliance (IAPA). After a series of symposia in CAFA late last year, this exhibition is now being held in Tianjin, in an unequivocal attempt to save a (supposedly) dying art form from extinction.
Mon Apr 9 & Tue Apr 10; free; Tianjin Academy of Fine Arts (TAFA), see event listing.
Apr 11-14: Guest Chef Marco Tola @ The Ritz-Carlton
Inventive, modern Italian cuisine is coming to Tianjin straight from Italy this April, as celebrity chef Marco Tola showcases his unique creations at The Ritz-Carlton Tianjin. Invited by executive chef, Ornato Antunes, Tola brings his natural flair and creativity to this four-day event. Chef Tola was introduced to cooking through non-traditional means. Despite never learning his craft in a Michelin kitchen, Tola spent days studying and training himself, to eventually become one of the most famous celebrity chefs on social media. Different types of Italian cuisine will be on show, as the theme changes daily: Mediterraneo, Aqua, Mistero and Creativo. Do not miss the chance to sample a slice of innovative Italian cuisine, as well as hear from Chef Marco Tola himself.

Apr 30 - May 1: 'Two Dogs' Ideas About Life'
What happens when two opinionated dogs decide to leave their hometown to start a new life in the city? A lot of fun stuff, apparently.
