SUMMARY:Table tennis camp Shanghai with Bettine Vriesekoop
DESCRIPTION:From July 26 to August 8 \, 2026\, we will once again travel with a group of table tennis talents to a table tennis academy in Shanghai led by Bettine Vriesekoop\, two-time European table tennis champion. Silk Mandarin\, a language school in Shanghai that is run by a Dutchman\, facilitates everything on the spot and VNC (Vereniging Nederland China) supports this unique trip. A maximum of 30 people can join. The purpose of the trip is to practice Chinese training methods in order to be able to play table tennis at the highest level and to learn about the rich Chinese culture.    \n  \nOn March 25\, there will be an information meeting about the table tennis trip to Shanghai. Bettine talks about the 2025 table tennis trip and about the great training facilities that exist in Shanghai. The consulate in Shanghai is also involved in this trip and will receive the group this summer.    There are already enough registrations so the trip will continue anyway.  The trip is designed for young table tennis players who want to improve their skills. Older players are also welcome if there is room.  \nFor more information and registration\, click here.

SUMMARY:22 August guided tour of the photo exhibition Flowers in the mirror by Ruben Lundgren
DESCRIPTION:22 August guided tour of the photo exhibition Flowers in the mirror by Ruben Lundgren 11:00-13:00 Fotomuseum Den Haag\, Stadhouderslaan 43 2517 HV The Hague. \n  \nEspecially for the Netherlands China Association\, photographer and curator Ruben Lundgren takes us to this special solo exhibition in the Netherlands. \n  \nWith the exhibition: Flowers in the Mirror\, photographer and curator Ruben Lundgren (The Netherlands\, 1983) reflects on twenty years of working and living in China. At the age of 21\, he left for China as a photography student\, where mastering the language and culture coincided with his search for an overtly queer identity. Photography offers him the opportunity to investigate the tension between image and reality.   \nThere is a maximum number that can participate. VNC members come first\, but in principle there is also room for non-members. Register quickly!   \nNon-members pay 5 euros plus admission to the museum. Members only access to the museum.  \nAfterwards there is an opportunity to drink and eat in the restaurant. Ruben is also present.  \nRegister here:
