春暖人间、家家贴春联 – 序幕

By Chinese calligraphy, Compassion, Juesatta art, Photography

春暖人间、家家贴春联已经迈入第7届了。自沈老离世之后,我们仍可感受到他的精神,马六甲的书法风气犹在。

上个星期六是庚寅年“春暖人间、家家贴春联”的开幕。这个活动在马六甲的鸡场街举行了开笔仪式。多位国内书法家在鸡场街街头挥写出3幅长15呎的榜书,吸引许多人的围观。虽然我之后才来到了那里,没有看到朋友张梓毫还有几位名书法家的挥毫,却赶得及见识到朋友10岁的汤耀坤挥毫。他所写出的“龙腾虎跃”,一笔一画的刚劲,丝毫不逊色于大人。同时,我也见到了友族同胞小朋友对中华文化的热爱,写出的字漂亮的令人惊叹。

现场也义卖名家书法作品,為峇章圣约翰洗肾中心筹募运作经费。过去六年,这个活动已经筹得10万零吉的善款,捐献给慈善机构。现场我也见识到宋群礼老先生,还有许多男女性名书法家的挥毫写春联和义卖。据知今年至今,多位书法家,包括小朋友们,义务挥写8000余幅春联。

With the permission of Mr. Liu, my chinese calligraphy teacher, I snapped some photos of the class and my friendly classmates who are mostly primary school students. Right now, most of the students are busy writting spring festival couplets for Chinese New Year. These couplets will be sold as charity fund for the Bachang St John’s Dialysis Center in Melaka.

According to Mr. Liu, Bachang St John’s Dailysis Center has about 100 patients. Each treatment is charged RM10 which is relatively cheap. By doing so, the center has to bare thousands of ringgit for the operation each year and thus, donation is collected to maintain the cost.

These young artists of the class (mostly primary school students) are doing their very best to write in order to help the dialysis patients. Every piece of the writings will be sold for charity and the fund collected is 100 percent donated to the  Bachang St John’s Dialysis Center.
