For the most part, the Changchun Friends website is not very active and has been superseded by the Tencent "Wechat" app by the local expat community. This website is maintained sporadically, people may still join and membership is still open, but if you are a spammer, stay away. The archived information here is still useful, but some may be out of date. There are plans to make it more useful for static information in the future. If anyone needs information about Changchun or China, you may post a message and it probably will get a response but not immediately.

It is with great excitement and esteemed pleasure that we announce the opening of the Grand Chang Chun Photography Exhibition to be held, hosted and heralded at the homecoming of our home's happy season, Spring.
This will be the key word and theme that you, the photographers are encouraged to focus on - SPRING.
Focus on what was that terrible winter and what will become our beautiful dawning spring.
Entrants can offer as many photos as they like but must pick their best 5 to exhibit in the competition. All exhibits will initially be confidential for the purposes of unbiased judging.
At a location which will be kept secret for the time being, all photos will be properly hung and on full view for a full two weeks to showcase our talents and photographic prowess.
I will take the time to contact local media networks and hopefully our entrants’ pieces will make their ways to the news of the Chun.
There will be consolation prizes and a grand prize of considerable value; not to metion the esteemed trophy which is on order from a master craftsman operating out of Romania.
If you are not a photographer but wish to take part in this monumental movement which showcases the human spirit and its’ attempt to capture its’ own self, then become a judge. You will be given that unique and unforeseen privilege of being able to judge art, as an amateur artist or a savant of the refined, but all the more you will be involved. (Odds to be discussed at a more opportune moment).
In association with the Arts & Letters and Dan Gaymer’s Connect, and our fellow Chinese sponsors we encourage you all to sign up and get clicking.
It’s gonna be epic!

Are the photos still going to be hung for 2 weeks, or just for the one night? I'd like to bring my wife to see the exhibition when she comes on the 6th. Also, could you post a link to the venue location via the Changchun Map? Some people might find that more convenient.
i have class on monday evenings - will people be there longer or is the 8pm when the place closes??
We are framing some of the photos now and they look really really good.
Well Ladies and Gentlemen, we have found a very artsy bar just across from the Flying Baby Elephant and this will be the location for the Exhibition. It is called - "The Family Bar". Just look out for balloons and a big grey brick wall facade.
Upstairs there is a private viewing area with a really intimate and quirky feel. And don't forget, after the exhibition we are gonna have a big old party bash organised by our Danish DJ Jonas.
This location is really nice and we look forward to seeing you there.
Cheap drinks, cool atmosphere and a bird cage!
Who removed my comment?
Cheers mate! It would be nice to do it together and get a good deal on decent prints etc.

Thanks Jonas.
Yep, I will be conta\cting you and all the other participants before the date to arrange how we want to go about it.
Frmaing printing, the whole kit and kaboodle.
Hi Jack
