Description
Our community is led by Director Gordon, who has a keen interest in puppets, carnivals, and abstract art. After traveling the world for several years, visiting festivals, and scouting community projects, he has been inspired by Seattle’s Fremont Solstice and Nevada’s Burning Man festival. Gordon aims to bring the ideas and inspirations he gathered from these experiences to life within our Community.
The highlight of our community is the Parade, held on the second Saturday of October. This vibrant festival brings diverse entertainment and joy to the community, drawing tens of thousands of participants each year. It includes a lively parade with decorated floats, Capoeira, various dance groups, community teams, stilt walkers, samba dance, and samba drumming, with teams joining from across Taiwan. The event aims to promote art and culture, enhance community cohesion, and convey the passion and dreams of its participants.

How to get to us from the Airport? Take bus 1843 to "Nangang Exhibition Center" get off the bus and go to the other side of the road to take bus 817, a 15-minute ride( if you don't cross the road you will go in the wrong direction). get down at the Jinlong village bus stop. the Art Center is 500m from there.
An easier solution would be to get off the bus 1843 at the Nangang Exhibition Center and take a taxi. it is 10 mins ride, 150ntd ( $5 us) .
