Crafting Cultural Connections
Forever Ronghua Foundation
Bridging Cultures Through Art
Our Mission
Chinese culture is ancient and profound, rich in intangible cultural heritage—these are the knowledge, skills, performing arts, festive traditions, and folk practices passed down through generations. They embody the creativity and wisdom of the Chinese people, carry unique cultural values and spiritual significance, and have nourished and influenced communities across five million square kilometers.
The Forever Ronghua Foundation is dedicated to preserving, transmitting, and promoting Chinese culture and its intangible heritage. Through educational programs, cultural initiatives, and community activities, we aim to help people around the world appreciate the unique value of Chinese culture, foster cultural confidence, and inspire the next generation to become inheritors and promoters of Chinese cultural traditions in a global, intercultural context.
Our vision is to ensure that the essence of Chinese culture transcends time and space, gaining recognition, respect, and appreciation worldwide, while thriving and evolving in the modern world.

Rónghuā (Velvet Flowers) – Imperial Chinese Art
Rónghuā, or “velvet flowers,” is a traditional Chinese craft that transforms colorful silk threads into delicate, lifelike flowers. Some designs, known as Guanhua (Imperial Flowers), were historically used in the royal court to adorn garments, accessories, and palace decorations, symbolizing elegance, power, and prosperity.
This art form reflects the creativity, patience, and skill of Chinese artisans, preserving an essential part of China’s intangible cultural heritage. The Forever Ronghua Foundation celebrates Rónghuā as a bridge between history and modern appreciation, sharing its beauty and cultural significance with the world.
