ArtsConnect’s ArtsCalendar is a work in progress. Presently, we are working with a small group of arts organizations from across the Tri-Cities to develop the ArtsCalendar before we open up submissions from all arts organizations and we are not accepting direct submissions at this time. If your organization is interested in joining the ArtsCalendar in the future, please email your name, address, and a brief description of your organization to: [email protected]
This resource has been made possible through the financial support of ArtsConnect’s members. If you would like to support the further development, please consider becoming a member here: Membership
Open Air Performance Series: Jada Zhou
Jada Zhou is a young guzheng musician who has been studying the instrument for five years. She has achieved Level 7 certification in the professional performance assessment of the Central Conservatory of Music in China, demonstrating her strong technical foundation and dedication to traditional Chinese music.
Jada’s playing combines the elegant, expressive qualities of the guzheng with a sincere passion for sharing Chinese culture with wider audiences. She has performed at a variety of community and cultural events, including the Asian Harmony Art & Cultural Event, Chinese New Year Celebration Gala, and Evergreen Cultural Centre’s Open Air Performance Series in summer 2025, where she performed as part of Guzheng Sisters with her sister.
In addition to public cultural events, Jada has also shared her music through performances at senior homes and charity events hosted by non-profit organizations. These experiences have helped her grow not only as a musician, but also as a young performer who values connection, community, and cultural exchange.
Through her solo performance, Jada hopes to bring the beautiful sound of the guzheng to the Open Air Performance Series once again and share the charm of traditional Chinese music with the local community.
