That's PRD takes a look at the best of the week:
October 18: InterChamber Networking Drinks
Can you think of a better way to spend a Tuesday night than crushing wine and rubbing shoulders with the who’s who of Guangzhou’s international business community? We can’t, unless given the option of all-you-can-eat tacos with Maggi Thatcher, Harambe and Cecil the lion (#RIPTheGreats). Since tacos with deceased politicians and animals are not an option, we recommend spending October 18 at AustCham South China’s InterChamber Networking Drinks event, which is being held at the Double Tree by Hilton Guangzhou. Enjoy a selection of food from around the globe, as well as Australian wine, live music and good company. China Southern have kindly sponsored two return airfare tickets to Australia for a raffle, with proceeds going to Wilber’s Foundation.
October 18, 7-10.30pm; RMB180 for members, RMB280 for non-members. DoubleTree by Hilton Guangzhou.
October 19-23: Oil Painting Experimental Class
Looking to hone your artistic skills beyond selecting the best Instagram filters? Contrary to what you may hear, it’s never too late to start. Come to the picturesque village of Xiaozhou in Haizhu District for a weekly class in oil painting and surround yourself with other ardent beginners. The classes will feature an instructor and set objective, but students can also opt to pursue their own projects. Bring your creativity and an open mind!
October 19-23, 2-5pm; RMB180. Sengu Studio. See event listing.
October 20: Hooley’s Trivia Night
