#Dong Ho Folk Painting

The scene “Vinh quy bai to” (Returning home in glory to pay respects to ancestors) recreates the moment when a successful scholar returns to his hometown, honouring aspirations for learning, filial piety, and community pride—enduring values embodied in Dong Ho folk paintings.

Preserving heritage through the language of art

Recently, the Viet Nam Circus Federation, in coordination with the Dong Ho Folk Painting Conservation Centre, organised the cultural and artistic programme “Dong Ho Circus Paintings”. The event forms part of the project “Staying Awake with Heritage”, featuring a series of activities including folk games, hands-on experiences with Dong Ho woodblock printing techniques, and creatively staged circus performances.
