Vinschool students make their mark at the Japan International Art Accommodation Program

This special milestone not only affirms the outstanding creative capacity of Vinschool students, but also shows the role of the Vinschool Talent Consulting and Development Center (GATE) in building a methodical art training environment, creating a launching pad for students to gradually integrate and be recognized in prestigious global art spaces.

The first mark of Vinsers' talent in an international art program

The three Vinschool Talented Students in the Fine Arts field include Tu Hoai An (10th grade, Vinschool Times City High School, Hanoi), Nguyen Minh Hanh (12th grade, Vinschool Central Park High School, Ho Chi Minh City) and Dinh Bao Nghi (10th grade, Vinschool Central Park High School, Ho Chi Minh City).

Within the framework of the International Artist Accommodation Program in Koganecho (Yokohama, Japan), the project is implemented by three Vinsers in collaboration with artist Dang Viet Linh named "Dialogue" (English name: Dialogue). The project takes place for 2 weeks (December 21, 2025 - January 3, 2026) with a series of activities including art workshops, meeting with international artists and direct writing. These practical experiences become the material for students to create new works, introduced to the Japanese public in the exhibition of the same name from January 3 - 10, 2026.

The works in the exhibition "Dialogue" are formed from the process of observing, exchanging and experimenting in Koganecho's open art environment. Each work expresses a unique perspective on personal identity and the presence of people in the cultural flow, through new explorations of materials and visual language. The exhibition space becomes a "dialogue" between young Vietnamese artists and the Japanese public, while expanding to a conversation between young perspectives and the international art context.

In particular, in parallel with the exhibition, the three students also take on the role of "cultural ambassadors" when directly introducing Vietnamese traditional art to the Yokohama community through the workshop "To he" on December 27, 2025. The activity provides an opportunity for the Japanese public to learn about the To he craft and experience shaping with sticky rice flour - a traditional material brought from Xuan La craft village. The workshop shows the maturity of students in connecting the community and using art as a means of cultural communication.

GATE Vinschool Center – an environment to nurture young artistic talents

With the "Dialogue" project, three Vinschool Talented Students have become the first high school students to be selected to participate in the International Artist Accommodation Program for 15 years of the program's implementation.

Previously, the students were built a personalized development roadmap by the GATE Center, suitable for their abilities, creative style, and artistic orientation. During the training process, students have access to diverse materials, techniques, and contemporary art thinking; and participate in in-depth experiential activities to form a solid professional foundation and a clear personal identity.

Sharing about this milestone, Ms. Trinh Khanh Huyen - Coordinator of GATE Center - said: "Each Talented Student at GATE Center is built a personalized training roadmap, "measured" to fit their abilities and personal orientation to best develop their potential. In the field of Fine Arts, the Center focuses on creating opportunities for students to access art in a variety of forms, helping students expand their thinking and develop their creativity in the practical context. It can be said that being selected to participate in a prestigious international art program like this is a clear proof of the maturity of their abilities that they have persistently built throughout the past time.

Established in 2018, GATE Vinschool Center is an environment to nurture talents in many fields such as Arts, STEM, Social Sciences... through the Advanced Learning Plan personalized learning program.

In 2025, GATE Center and 14 Vinschool Talented Students successfully organized the exhibition "Nhan Dang", introducing more than 40 multi-material, highly experimental artworks, combining traditional art and contemporary art forms, including New Media Art associated with technology and science.

The "Dialogue" project in the International Artist Accommodation Program in Koganecho continues to affirm the GATE Center's efforts in expanding learning space, connecting with international art organizations and creating conditions for students to maximize their potential.

It's a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit.
