City Stage, Taipei City Government Department of Cultural Affairs Introduction
Established in 1964, the Taipei City Social Education Institute is a well-known cultural and artistic space aimed primarily at promoting arts and cultural activities. The open areas include a lobby on the first floor and three exhibition halls focused on static exhibitions, while also hosting various music, dance, and theater activities in the City Stage and Art Plaza. After renovations were completed in 2003, the performance section was renamed "City Stage," re-launching as a more professional and modern comprehensive theater, better suited to contemporary urban activities. In addition to the main building on Bade Road, new facilities have been built, such as the Yanping Activity Center in Datong District, the Wenshan Branch in Wenshan District, and the Parent-Child Plaza at the City Hall, alleviating usage limitations of the main building and allowing more community members to easily participate in educational activities. In 2014, in line with the revision of the Cultural Bureau organizational regulations, it was officially renamed "Taipei City Cultural Promotion Office," with its unveiling on November 6, 2015.
