Work Summary of the Tang Xianzu Memorial Hall in Fuzhou for 2022

In accordance with the work plan formulated at the beginning of 2022 by the Tang Xianzu Memorial Hall in Fuzhou City, the key achievements for 2022 are summarized as follows:

I. Strengthen team building and ensure solid progress in the development of the Party branch’s organizational structure.

(1) Implement Party building work.

1. Guided by Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, we organized Party members and cadres to thoroughly study the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the CPC, as well as the spirit of the 15th Provincial Party Congress and the 5th Municipal Party Congress. We rigorously implemented the system of intra‑Party life, conducting a total of 12 themed Party‑day activities, 5 special thematic events, 4 specialized Party lectures, 4 plenary meetings of Party members, and 24 branch committee meetings throughout the year. We also held one annual organizational life meeting and one special organizational life meeting, and organized six sessions of focused study on the 20th National Congress. We have consciously maintained high-level alignment with the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core, firmly safeguarded the “two establishments,” strengthened our “four consciousnesses,” bolstered our “four confidences,” and ensured the “two upholds.”

2. A practical activity titled “Heed the Party’s Words, Follow the Party, and Be Grateful to the Party” was carried out at the Wenchangli Red Culture Museum; a visit to the Municipal Education Center for Comprehensively Strengthening Party Governance was organized; and an outreach event—“Warmly Welcoming the 20th National Congress: Deepening Respect for the Elderly”—featuring charitable medical consultations was held at the Zhanping Town Senior Care Facility. Amidst the stringent COVID‑19 prevention and control measures, Party members proactively engaged with the community, exemplifying their role in serving the people, thereby enhancing the ideological awareness and public‑service orientation of all Party members and further strengthening the Party branch’s cohesion and combat effectiveness.

(II) Strengthen the building of Party conduct and integrity. First, The branch secretary conscientiously fulfills the responsibilities of the “primary person in charge” for Party building within the branch, strengthens the implementation of principal responsibility, and ensures the effective execution of all tasks related to Party conduct and integrity. Second, We have strengthened routine education on Party spirit, Party conduct, and Party discipline. Since the beginning of this year, the Party branch, guided by the Party Constitution, has organized study sessions on the Regulations on Internal Supervision of the Communist Party of China, the Regulations on Disciplinary Actions of the Communist Party of China, and relevant documents issued by General Secretary Xi Jinping on building a clean and honest Party. In conjunction with the thematic campaign to deepen work style development under the “Eight Promotions and Eight Rectifications” initiative, the sense of integrity among Party members and cadres has been effectively reinforced. Third is By combining case briefings, video screenings, and other forms of cautionary education, we strengthen the ideological defenses of Party members and cadres in the fight against corruption and ensure they remain steadfast in upholding the bottom line. Four It involves leveraging institutional media to promote a culture of diligence and integrity, thoroughly exploring the contemporary relevance of Tang Xianzu’s ideas on these values, and striving to cultivate a locally distinctive culture of diligence and integrity. This includes establishing cultural corridors dedicated to such themes and disseminating content that highlights Tang Xianzu’s legacy, thereby ensuring that this culture takes root as a cornerstone of anti-corruption and integrity-building efforts.

(3) Strengthening the workforce. Since the beginning of this year, through the Party branch’s outreach and the exemplary guidance of veteran Party members, two outstanding young staff members at our institution have been identified as active candidates for Party membership, and one young employee has also submitted an application to join the Party. These developments clearly demonstrate that our Party branch possesses strong cohesion and organizational capacity.

II. Host exhibitions of various formats and carry out diverse public‑benefit promotional activities.

Our museum takes its permanent exhibitions as a foundation, integrating temporary exhibits, traveling shows, and online displays to innovate both the formats and content of our programming, thereby fully fulfilling the museum’s educational and outreach mission.

(1) Throughout the year, a total of 25 temporary exhibitions were held, traveling to venues such as the Linggu Peak Scenic Area, Sanweng Garden, the Wenchangli Historical and Cultural District, the Cultural Square, and local community commercial districts. Among these, five newly designed temporary exhibitions were presented for the first time, including “All Things Are Born of Love, and Love Gives Rise to Poetry—An Appreciation of Tang Xianzu’s Poems,” “The East Wind Blows Dreams—When Will We Awaken?—An Exploration of the Lyrics from ‘The Record of the Southern Bough,’” “Family Precepts and Family Traditions of Fuzhou,” “Hot Blood Forges a Loyal Soul—A Chapter on the Red Revolution in Linchuan Culture,” and “Wenfeng Embraces Beauty—An Exhibition of Fuzhou’s Cultural and Museum Achievements in the New Era.”

(2) We have leveraged major holiday events to carry out public education and outreach initiatives. During the Spring Festival, we organized “Skillful Paper-Cutting” and “New Year Prints to Welcome the New Year”; on May Day, we hosted “Creative Handiwork—Kite Art” as well as the interactive Douyin and WeChat campaign “Spring Blossoms, Joyfully Welcoming the 20th CPC National Congress—Capturing Beautiful Moments at the Garden”; on the 45th International Museum Day (May 18), our museum presented the exhibitions “The Sage of Eastern Opera—Tang Xianzu” and “The East Wind Blows Dreams—When Will We Awaken? An Appreciation of the Lyrics from ‘The Story of the Southern Bough’”; during “Museum Night,” we staged an arts gala to showcase “The Power of Museums,” enriching the cultural and spiritual lives of local residents; on Cultural and Natural Heritage Day, we launched the event “Joyfully Welcoming the 20th CPC National Congress—Cultural Heritage Shining with a New Era”; for the Qixi Festival, we held “True Love on Qixi—Painting Fans and Seeking Poetic Lines”; and during the Mid-Autumn Festival, we guided participants in hand‑painting lanterns and toured the exhibition “Fuzhou’s Family Traditions and Precepts.” On National Day, we introduced a series of activities and exhibitions under the theme “Warmly Welcoming the 20th CPC National Congress—Deep Patriotic Sentiments.” Through these temporary exhibitions and community‑oriented programs, we have fostered a vibrant atmosphere that celebrates and promotes China’s outstanding traditional culture.

(3) Leveraging self-media for cultural promotion. We have institutionalized the use of our WeChat official account, ensuring monthly updates. Throughout the year, our official website, WeChat official account, Douyin, and other new media platforms collectively published over 400 posts, covering event announcements, public service advertisements, scenic‑spot highlights, and more. These materials garnered over 81,000 views, effectively advancing the promotion of Tang Weng culture and enhancing our institution’s visibility among the broader online community.

(1) Our museum has further refined its systems for the protection and management of all types of collections, as well as its safety operating procedures. Collection records are clear, identifications are accurate, cataloging is detailed, storage is proper, and access is convenient. In coordination with the cultural relics census, we have promptly submitted the required reports on relevant cultural relics to the Municipal Cultural Relics Bureau. We have also ensured thorough cleaning and hygiene in the storage facilities and implemented robust security measures.

(2) Throughout the year, a total of 81 items were acquired, enriching our museum’s collection. We actively promoted inter-museum exchanges of collection resources and supported the development of regional museums, donating a set of facsimiles of the “Wen Chang Tang Clan Genealogy” from the 32nd year of the Guangxu reign of the Qing Dynasty to the Linchuan District Museum.

IV. Emphasize Interpretation and Reception Services to Enhance the Quality of Guided Tours and Visitor Services

In 2022 our museum welcomed a total of 332,000 visitors and provided 222 guided tours. We successfully completed important reception tasks for key guests, including Li Qun, Member of the Party Leadership Group and Vice Minister of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism; Gu Yucai, Deputy Secretary of the Party Leadership Group and Deputy Director of the National Cultural Heritage Administration; a delegation of centrally seconded cadres; leaders at provincial and municipal levels; and various government delegations. Our guides offered clear, accessible interpretations of Tang Xianzu’s rich cultural heritage, bringing otherwise dry material vividly to life and earning unanimous praise. We also provided high-quality cultural tourism services to study groups, tour groups organized by travel agencies, and individual visitors.

V. Designing Study-Travel Activities to Enhance Quality and Efficiency

Since launching its educational research-and-learning programs, our museum has consistently adhered to the principle of personalized instruction. Tailoring content to the psychological traits and cognitive capacities of diverse audiences, we have moved beyond traditional, one-size-fits-all approaches, making learning more engaging and participatory for students. In doing so, we have reinforced the museum’s role as a “second classroom” and established collaborative agreements with numerous primary, secondary, and higher‑education institutions.
In 2022, we launched a variety of intangible cultural heritage–related experiential programs, including the “Intangible Cultural Heritage Opera Workshop” (covering opera movement, performance techniques, lecture series, and vocal training in local tea‑picking operas), “Traditional Facial Mask Painting,” “Intangible Cultural Heritage Bamboo‑Weaving,” and “Chinese Traditional Paper Cutting.” These initiatives have drawn more young people into the ranks of those preserving and passing on traditional culture, fostering a sense of pride in our national heritage and strengthening cultural confidence. We have also fully leveraged the educational and outreach functions of our research‑and‑practice base by organizing a “Summer Junior Docent” training program, encouraging primary and secondary school students to engage deeply in interactive learning, inquiry, and hands-on experience. Additionally, we visited Zhanping Central Primary School to host a series of events—such as “Welcoming the 20th National Congress: Culture on Campus” and the “1% Project: I Participate, I’m Happy”—which, through the integration of education and recreation, have enriched students’ cultural literacy, research skills, and practical experience, providing them with a well-rounded, immersive learning and exploration experience.
