Program

The 48th IAC General Assembly and Congress – IAC New Taipei City 2018 will be held in New Taipei City from September 30th to October 4th, 2018.  The location of the City hall is accessible within walking distance South East from Banqiao Station of the Taipei Metro, Taiwan High Speed Rail and Taiwan Railway Administration. The City Hall will be providing its auditorium on the 6th floor to host the main working sessions and exhibitions for the Congress. The IAC members’ thematic exhibition and free expression exhibition will be held in New Taipei City Yingge Ceramics Museum, which is located in Yingge, a the small pottery town 15 kilometers away from the New Taipei City Hall. In order to create a diverse and meaningful program, the organizers have proposed a program that is includes a variety of events:

The mornings and some parts of the afternoons will be animated with talks, debates and discussions that focus on the main theme: “New Orientalia: Functionality, Spirituality, Diversity”. Lunch and free time will be arranged around 12:00 to 14:00 every day.  Exhibitions and entertaining events are organized every day after the talking sessions. Welcome and farewell dinners will be held in exquisite local settings.

 

The last day of the Congress will offer the opportunity to visit distinctive places in the northern region of Chinese Taipei, including museums, artist studios, and scenic spots.

As other IAC meetings, pre and post-Congress tours are also arranged. The pre-Congress tour will be visiting the eastern region of Chinese Taipei , where all the geological wonders and diverse indigenous cultures are located. The post-Congress tour will be featuring ceramic places and traditional heritage located in the south-west region.
