“Charm of Jiangnan"
Wednesday, April 15, 2026
The Chinese School Andover announces a summer cultural exchange program in China called “Charm of Jiangnan,” which the Chinese School in Andover is co-organizing. It’s a 10-day program, supported by both the Chinese and U.S. governments as part of a multi-year initiative to give young people in the U.S. a meaningful, firsthand experience of China.
The program is open to U.S. citizens ages 13–43 who are not from fully Chinese heritage families (mixed heritage is welcome, as long as at least one parent is not Chinese). With the wide age range, we feel this program may also be appealing for some young families to participate together.
Once accepted, participants will have their lodging, meals, and in-country travel in China fully covered by the host institution. Participants are responsible for their round-trip airfare to Shanghai, along with a $480 application fee and any applicable visa fees.
