CHINA ARTS is a non profit organization.

Our College is a private and independent institute. It provides education at university and post-graduate level in the field of Taoist Studies, Chinese Fine Arts and Chinese Culture. There are three years Bachelor of Taoist Arts (BTA) and two years Master of Taoist Arts (MTA) programs, which contain various specialized courses on Chinese Painting and Calligraphy, Authentic Taoist Medical Traditions, Classical Chinese Language, Taoist Taijiquan and Qigong, and many other interesting subjects.

Our scientific research center TASC (Taoist Alchemical Studies Center) also advises on Taoist and Chinese medical issues and its qualified staff can offer Taoist medical treatment.

A vast private library of Taoist literature and Chinese subjects, is available to our students.

TASC also organizes conferences on Chinese culture. We publish books on Chinese subjects and our staff contributes articles to books and magazines by other publishers.

We co-operate on a formal/informal basis with other scientific and Taoist institutes and individuals in Belgium and abroad (European Universities, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, Suzhou and Jiangsu Taoist Association, Hangzhou Chinese Academy of Fine Arts, etc.).

We are also active in the field of fine arts. Our other website www.china-art.org presents works of art about and from China and news about our exhibitions.
