This is the fifth episode of our Rui'an exploration series. In this episode, Zheng Qingdi will take us to Rui'an's Dongyuan village, a culturally-rich village known for Chinese wooden movable-type printing.
In addition to the famous Wooden Movable-type Printing Exhibition Hall, the village boasts the Dongli Folk Art Museum, which houses a variety of plant-dyeing works and has won many provincial titles.
Ma Guo is the curator of the museum, but why did he give up his job as a college teacher, come to this small mountainous village and devote himself to the study of Jiaxie (dyeing) culture and wooden moveable-type printing? What has this provincial village museum done for the preservation of intangible cultural heritage items in Rui’an? And what has it brought to local people? Join us to learn the story of Ma Guo and his enduring relationship with intangible culture.
