In their first exposure to Vietnamese mother-of-pearl inlay art, the students were all very interested and made great efforts to complete their products. Many students expressed their desire to continue participating in Vietnamese handicraft making classes in the future and hope to have the opportunity to travel and explore Vietnamese traditional culture and art.
