圣地亚哥州立大学中华文化中心成立于2019年，是校园内集展览、会议与文化交流于一体的实体空间。中心以 “六艺” 为核心理念，面向全校师生、南加州社区及全世界，常年举办中国历史、艺术与语言相关的展览和学术活动，旨在支持对中国及整个亚太地区的文化、历史、语言、艺术和社会知识的研究与传播。
Established in 2019, the Chinese Cultural Center serves as a dedicated space for exhibitions, lectures, meetings, and cultural exchange. Guided by the philosophy of the Six Arts, the center presents year-round exhibitions and educational programs on Chinese history, art, and language for the university community, the wider Southern California public, and the world at large. Its mission is to advance understanding of the cultures, histories, languages, arts, and societies of China and the broader Asia-Pacific region.
刘丽容（Li-rong Lilly Cheng）博士是SDSU荣休教授，三十余年间以中国研究学院为起点，整合多年积累的文物、师资与合作资源，于2019年创立中华文化中心。她曾获美国言语语言听力协会最高荣誉“ASHA Honors”及2024年“改变世界女性奖”，更以言语病理学家的独特身份，将跨文化医疗与中华文化传播相融合，策办上百场艺术展览，以学术与艺术并举的方式，消除东西方之间的认知隔阂。
Dr. Li-rong Lilly Cheng is Professor Emerita at SDSU. Drawing on more than three decades of work in Chinese studies, she brought together her extensive collections, academic network, and long-standing partnerships to establish the Chinese Cultural Center in 2019. A recipient of ASHA Honors, the highest distinction of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association, and the 2024 Women Who Change the World Award, Dr. Cheng has uniquely combined her expertise as a speech-language pathologist with a lifelong commitment to promoting Chinese culture. Through hundreds of exhibitions and public programs, she has fostered greater understanding between Eastern and Western cultures through both scholarship and the arts.
参访期间，刘丽容教授团队介绍了中心的历史沿革与使命愿景，杜维明先生则分享了六悦博物馆和六悦文化园的发展历程与收藏理念。
刘丽容教授投身中华文化传播与研究已三十多年，在北美地区享有盛誉，如今在圣地亚哥州立大学创办中华文化中心，继续传播中华文化的深厚底蕴与当代价值。杜维明先生多年来潜心收藏并展陈中国传统民间艺术，在苏州黎里创办了六悦博物馆。双方以各自的方式，为中华传统文化的保护、传承与推广贡献自己的力量。
During the visit, Dr. Li-rong Lilly Cheng and her team introduced the Chinese Cultural Center’s history, mission, and vision, while Mr. Mitch Dudek shared the story behind the Six Arts Museum and Six Arts Cultural Park, along with the museum’s philosophy of collecting and preserving Chinese folk art.
For more than three decades, Dr. Cheng has been dedicated to the study and promotion of Chinese culture, earning wide recognition across North America. Today, through the Chinese Cultural Center at SDSU, she continues to share the richness of Chinese heritage and its relevance in the modern world. Meanwhile, Mr. Dudek has devoted many years to collecting, preserving, and exhibiting traditional Chinese folk art, culminating in the creation of the Six Arts Museum in Lili Ancient Town, Suzhou. Though their journeys are different, they share the same commitment: safeguarding, preserving, and promoting China’s rich cultural heritage for future generations.
经过此次参观访问，刘丽容教授欣然约定于今年8月底回访六悦博物馆，届时将就潜在合作方向继续交流。我们对此充满期待，也将以此为契机，继续为中华传统文化的传承与推广贡献一份力量。
Following the visit, Dr. Cheng warmly accepted an invitation to return to Six Arts Museum at the end of August, when both sides will continue discussions on potential areas of collaboration. We look forward to welcoming her back and hope this exchange will mark the beginning of an even closer partnership, creating new opportunities to preserve, share, and celebrate the enduring beauty of Chinese culture.
