Without fancy costumes and props, without dazzling and colorful lighting effects, the protagonist is the villagers themselves, and the rural stage at their doorstep is the villagers' "runway"... Currently, many village (community) party branches in Yishui County, Linyi City, Shandong Province are busy again for the annual village level Spring Festival Gala, which is also known as the "village evening" by the masses. Since the beginning of last year, when the Organization Department of Yishui County Committee issued an initiative to all village (community) party organizations in the county and fully launched the "Village Evening" activity led by party branches, An Yujun, the secretary of the Zhongshan Village Party Branch in Longjiahuan Street, has had the idea of standardizing and improving the village's cultural and artistic teams. Although Zhongshan Village has held 6 consecutive "Village Nights", the programs mainly focus on square dances organized by villagers themselves, and there is still no decent art troupe in the village. An Yujun wants to seize the opportunity presented by the county's initiative to upgrade the "civilian team" in the village to a "regular literary and artistic army". With the support of the village party branch, the cultural and artistic backbone in Zhongshan Village has been able to improve their stage skills and program arrangement abilities through external exchanges, learning, and group discussions and research. Now, a new cultural stage has been built in the village. An Yujun confidently said, "The 'Village Evening' in Zhongshan Village in 2025 will surely give the villagers a refreshing feeling." As the first party branch in the county to respond to the initiative, the first 'Village Evening' of the Mazhan Village Party Branch in Mazhan Town was lively. The scene of the festival was extremely lively, and the villagers were very enthusiastic, all wanting to go on stage to showcase their skills, "said Liu Long, the secretary of the Ma Zhan Village Party Branch. On the stage of "Village Evening" in Yishui County, which emphasizes authenticity, hometown, and self-directed performance, anyone with ideas and talents can perform their own and the village's story on stage. Making the masses the spokespersons of rural culture, such a stage is naturally full of New Year's flavor and local sentiment. For the "Village Evening" in Yishui County, joy is not the only theme. Many village (community) party branches have collected a batch of typical deeds, good deeds, and good deeds in the village (community), allowing exemplary figures in the village to step onto the stage and use programs to tell the vivid practices of villagers in promoting rural revitalization under the leadership of the party. By hosting the 'Village Evening', the relationships between neighbors have become increasingly harmonious, and the cohesion and centripetal force of our village have become stronger Wei Zengzhong, Secretary of the Party Branch and Director of the Village Committee in Donghexi Village, Zhuge Town, said. In Yishui County, the good ideas of the Party branch leading the cooperative, the good stories of the Party branch leading the Cuncaoxin Volunteer Service Team, and the good deeds of the Party branch leading the "Village BA" are all sources of inspiration for the "Village Evening" program. Through the form of 'Village Evening', the local stories of the new practice of unity between the Party and the masses have gradually become deeply rooted in people's hearts. (New Society)
