　　Huiquan Annual Meeting collecting creative ideas for sea sacrificial ceremony

　　Source: Qingdao Daily 　　

　　It was informed recently by Qingdao Great Holiday Celebrations Office that the opening ceremony of 2005 Qingdao sea sacrificial rite is under preparation. The sea sacrificial rite is one of the grand celebrating activities of Annual Meeting for Huiquan Spring Festival Folk Culture. In order to combine the municipal government's initiative of holding this annual meeting and the unique oceanic culture, the organizing committee decides to collect creative ideas of the new era for the sea sacrificial ceremony among the citizens of Qingdao.

　　Because of the long history of 'Jimo Sea Sacrificial Ceremony', the primitive way of celebration has disappeared, leaving little record of it. The present ceremony, spontaneously organized by the fishers, began in early 1980's and is a form of praying for happiness. At present, the directing group, consisting of experts from the cultural and historical institutions and members of the organizing committee, are busy designing the activities for the opening ceremony.

　　In order to endow the ceremony with the spirit of the new era when displaying it as pure traditional historical culture, the organizing committee has made a decision that if anybody familiar with the traditional ceremony can fuse it with the new era and the sailing competitions in Qingdao in 2008, they can contact the organizing committee and take part in the annual meeting, so as to create a great activity which combines the local culture and the style of the new era.

　　Please contact the organizing committee by telephone: 2070561, 2603939, 2929889.

　　汇泉年会征集"祭海"创意

　　来源：青岛日报

　　日前，从青岛市重大节庆办公室传来消息，2005青岛汇泉春节民俗文化年会开幕式大型庆典活动"祭海"正在紧张筹备过程之中。结合市政府举办本次青岛汇泉春节民俗文化年会的初衷和青岛独特的海洋文化，组委会特向岛城社会各界征集新时代的"祭海"创意。

　　"即墨祭海"由于年岁已久，起先最原始的方式已不复存在，有关这方面的文字记载也很缺乏。现存的祭海仪式是改革开放以后，渔民自发组织的一种祈福的形式。目前来自岛城各文化、历史部门的专家和组委会主要成员组成编导组正在共同设计本次开幕式庆典演出。

　　为了在全面地展示"祭海"仪式这一纯传统的历史文化的同时，也赋予"祭海"新时代的精神内涵，组委会做出决定，只要熟悉传统的祭海仪式、同时又能把这种仪式融合到时代中来，并能结合2008扬帆青岛的大背景，都可以致电组委会参与到2005青岛汇泉春节民俗文化年会祭海仪式创作组来，与专家学者共同创作一个具有浓郁地方特色又不失时代气息的大型庆典活动。

　　组委会联系电话：2070561、2603939、2929889。
