On October 29, Live in LIFE, a jazz concert by Alec, a band with members from China, the United States, the United Kingdom and Canada, will create a delightful soothing experience for audiences.
A children's play about a magic forest journey is also scheduled through October 28 as part of the activities.
The event is expected to enrich the cultural life of residents in Jiading New City and even Huaqiao of Kunshan City, neighboring Jiangsu Province, officials said.
