The origin of Guanzhong busy attack art festival

Guanzhong Busy Strike Art Festival is a custom in Shaanxi. After the summer harvest, farmers visited relatives and friends and invited the troupe to sing, hence the name of the festival.

Guanzhong Agricultural Busy Art Festival is an artistic activity with the theme of rural cultural revitalization and construction. Activities such as folk film screening, Zhongnan Drama Festival, Earth Ecological Art Exhibition, Zhongnan Township Gathering, Zhongnan Township Banquet, and folk clay sculpture studio plan were set up. It originated from a custom in Shaanxi-"Busy Stop", that is, after the summer harvest, farmers visit relatives and friends and ask the troupe to sing.

This once humble village has now become a vibrant new art space. In the art festival, cool breeze and insects show the natural features of the countryside, while drama, art exhibition and other colorful art forms add a strong cultural atmosphere to the countryside. During the festival, plows, rakes, forks and other agricultural tools were invited to the village history museum. Murals with the theme of ecology, popular science and peasant portraits can be seen everywhere, and various artistic installations stand in the fields, allowing the seeds of art to take root and sprout on the local land.
