Huế Vietnam
There is perhaps no better place to have a conference on heritage than in Huế, Vietnam, a city rich with history and heritage.
The 14th Engaging With Vietnam embrace that history and heritage by holding the conference at various sites, including the historic Quốc Học High School, An Định Palace (Cung An Định), and the University of Arts – Hue University. The video below introduces these sites and others.

Conference Events
Together with many academic sessions including keynotes, plenaries, talk-shows, parallel panels, roundtables, workshops, etc., the conference also features an exciting range of accompanying events, as seen below:
Art Exhibition: Together with the University of Arts, Hue University, EWV is holding an international fine arts exhibition called “Living With Heritage.” Conference participants will visit the University of Arts, where the exhibition will be held throughout the conference and will remain open until 1 October.
Musical Performance: Diverse performances that include dance, musical instrument showcasing, and singing from Huế artists and from a troupe of Khmer musicians, dancers and singers who are lecturers and students from Trà Vinh University/ University of Trà Vinh in the Mekong Delta.
Áo Dài Event: Launching a new museum to document the historical development of the “Áo Dài” (the traditional Vietnamese dress/robe). Conference participants will get the chance to meet with designers, artisans, dress makers, etc. to learn how they maintain and continue to inspire this critical form of heritage.
Art Installation: The Điềm Phùng Thị Art Museum is hosting an installation by Phan Lê Hà, Trần Quang Trung and Liam C. Kelley called “Melody of Rain.” This installation uses abandoned architectural materials and other discarded old objects from around Huế and beyond, and a narrative from a multi-part novel by Phan Lê Hà, to elicit ideas about heritage, history, mobility, and how we live with heritage across cultural and transnational spaces. There will be an official opening of this exhibition during the Conference.
Visit to Heritage Sites: During the conference, conference participants will visit certain Nguyễn dynasty heritage sites to learn about the last Vietnamese dynasty, including the Imperial Citadel, the tomb of Emperor Gia Long and the Nam Giao altar.
Historical Exhibits: Conference participants and attendees will also have the opportunity to visit some museums, including the Hue Royal Antiquities Museum (Bảo tàng Cổ vật Cung đình Huế) and the Thua Thien Hue History Museum (Bảo tàng lịch sử Thừa Thiên Huế) which is hosting an exhibit organized by some EWV participants entitled “Waging Peace in Vietnam.”
Gala Evening: The “Phong Y Yến,” held on the grounds of the historic An Định Palace, will take place in the evening of August 4 (Friday). Conference participants will have the chance to attend an evening event that is designed to highlight and honor the glory and glamour of the past, via images, materials, and artifacts that are rich and still run deep in living heritage and traditions of Hue. This event will feature diverse performances, a fashion show from models who showcase several limited edition designs especially created for the “Phong Y Yến” by fashion designers, and cuisine that represents the elegance of Huê’s past as the royal capital and the now city of heritage. **This event may require a paid ticket for admission.
