For the most part, the Changchun Friends website is not very active and has been superseded by the Tencent "Wechat" app by the local expat community.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 The archived information here is still useful, but some may be out of date.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.

Virgin Island artist completes fireball in China

 Virgin Islands artist Aragorn Dick-Read works on a 10-foot-wide fireball that was lit on Sunday during the 12th Annual Changchun International Sculpture Symposium in China. Aragorn Dick-Read’s dream of building what he believes to be the biggest fireball sculpture in the world came true over the weekend in China.

 

On Sunday during the 12th Annual China Changchun International Sculpture Symposium, Mr. Dick-Read’s 10-feet-wide creation was lit for an audience that included Chinese spectators and more than 100 other artists from around the world.

“It was an awesome experience,” Mr. Dick-Read said from Beijing on Tuesday.

The Virgin Islander has updated a blog almost daily since he left for China.

“Yesterday I finished the fireball! Signed, sealed and delivered! What a powerful and inspiring experience,” Mr. Dick-Read reported this week.
