The 2018 SJLAF kicked off at SCAC, SIP on Oct 12, bringing about a grand cultural and art feast to the local citizens.

As an annual event initiated in 2012, SJLAF has earned a high reputation home and abroad for its diversified components tailored for people with different artistic tastes, and therefore is now one of the most-anticipated events each year in Suzhou.

So far, a variety of art performances have been staged and many events like artists' talks and movie screenings are underway, receiving continuous high acclaim from the citizens. More can be expected, including a series of "Afternoon Office Concerts" to be held at a number of local office buildings for the staff working there.
