About the project

Beauty East, founded in Nov. 2010 and registered as the Chinese Performing Arts Society in UMSU, is a student-led project, which raises funds to support the education and careers of Chinese artists in Manchester. We provide training and performance opportunities for the local community. Our drama and film productions are designed to promote Chinese culture and Sino-British culture. It helps students to develop leadership in media and culture. If you believe in the power of media to promote cultural diversity, join us!
