These services include learning dialogues, talent training, innovation, and productions.

These activities will include pottery, lacquer, and metalworking, along with several dialogues for artist lectures, handicraft exhibitions, and competitions in arts and crafts.

The venue is expected to hold the 2nd competition for the Haizhu Ethnic Unity of Public Art and Design, which has contributed to the cause of ethnic unity and progress.
