The New York Qin and Calligraphy Society is a resource in Manhattan for the teaching, learning and promotion of Chinese qin music, calligraphy, painting, and related arts. Through promoting Chinese arts and their philosophy, we are also promoting the beauty of Oriental culture and elegant living. Playing the ancient zither, brushing calligraphy and painting, as well as tasting tea are subtle, elegant past times which appeal to our senses. These activities can awaken our original pure mind so that all the schemes and complexities of this dusty world will fall away, leaving only the joy of the present moment. In this hectic metropolis, why not take some time off and join us in this journey of beauty and enlightenment? Experience the elegance of notes, lines, and tea?
