Hi! I’m Nancy from a spanish gallery Art in Capitals. We want to be in the events & exhibition list of yours. Can you be so kind to tell me how to apply? Thanks a lot.
Hi Nancy, many thanks for your attention, actually for the exhibitions and movies that I listed, you do not need to apply, you just go there and buy tickets will be all right.
For the exhibitions I think the price would be around RMB 20, for the movies, the price would be around RMB 50
For the concert or performance, you can go to the place where it’s on to buy the tickets or you can buy it on internet in advance, I would suggest one for you:
