They offered the precious gifts they carried—gold, frankincense, and myrrh—to the child who would one day bring love and healing to the world. This moment became the earliest exchange of arts and gifts between East and West—a symbol of compassion, blessing, and the passing on of love.
During the pandemic, Healing Art Shiny Star wove together many years of Taiwan–Dallas artist- in-residence experiences with new Zoom lecture series shared across the U.S. and Canada. We launched with B Dance, bringing Taiwan to the world and the world back to Taiwan.
We also featured Master Sun Hui-Juan’s dance-theater appreciation lectures, guiding audiences through classic works such as:
• Alice in Wonderland • Zorba the Greek • Snow White • and many more masterpieces.
In October, we interviewed Taiwanese autism-art educator Grace Chen, who shared her 25 years of experience: five-sense learning, therapeutic massage, deep-travel experiential lessons, and other methods that help soothe and slow the progression of brain degeneration in individuals with autism. Her dedication deeply moved Mr. Warren Dai, a Chicago banker who had never met her before. He donated her airfare and encouraged broader sharing of her work throughout the U.S. and Canada. Right then and there, Mr. Dai sponsored both the Shiny Star Education Center and Grace Chen to bring an exhibition of her students’ artworks to Dallas—and from this, the Shiny Star BonBon Art Exhibition was born. Through 2023-2025, BonArt continued to bloom—across UT Dallas, Harvard University, and beyond—accompanied by more than 400 videos of lectures, life stories, and artistic journeys on YouTube. We invite you to join us as we continue passing on love, healing, and creativity.
Find Jesus in the manger hay. Sprinkles of love in every heart, That’s where healing and hope will start.
Oh Lord, before I knew Your name, You called my heart just the same. Like a coach who lights the way, You guide my trembling heart today.
Dr. Cardiologist, can you hear? BonBon, BonBon — my heartbeat clear! Orthopedic doctor, feel the roll, Bone Bone Bone — the drums of soul!
Poets and singers join the song, BonBonBon — come sing along! Snowflakes fall, sweet chocolate life, New friends spark with joy and light.
BonBon Art Show blooms on campus! UT Dallas, Harvard, Phoenix too, We are the little stars beneath the skies. Story workshops, poems, songs, and hearts, Crossing art with shining stars.
Shiny Star Mission: Bring the simple power of hope, healing, and empowerment through Jesus’ love! We share and care, A joyful camp — where hearts repair. Playful trees, happy flowers, Stones of love reflect His light.
Shiny Star BonBon Art! From every soul, a brand new start! Together we grow, together we shine, Same Noah’s ark through love divine. Start Small, Believe Big, Amazing Hearts, Come and join — Shiny Star BonBon Art!
Taiwan Autistic Artist association was founded in 2015 by Grace Chen. The association is dedicated to inspiring and empowering individuals on the autism spectrum through the integration of education, travel, and the arts. As both the mother of a child with autism and a special education professional with 25 years of experience, Ms. Chen has long used art as a catalyst for change—helping students build confidence, strengthen communication skills, and open up broader possibilities in life.
TAAA brings together outstanding artists including individuals with Down syndrome and Asperger’s syndrome. The association’s core mission is to guide people with autism out of isolation and toward active participation in their communities and society at large. Ms. Chen introduced the philosophy of “Additive Education,” which combines travel, art, and social engagement to stimulate the potential of star children, paving pathways for learning, personal growth, higher education, and career development.
Building Bridges of Creativity :
She developed the innovative concept of Additive Education, incorporating artistic creation, thematic learning, outdoor performances, and community interaction to create immersive, multi-sensory learning experiences. She personally leads students to places such as Yilan, Wulai, and Tamsui in northern Taiwan, where they engage in creative exchanges with local elders. Through these experiences, children once labeled as “hopeless” gradually transform into shining star children, discovering their voices and their place in the world.
