China National Calligraphers Association is different from China Calligraphers Association.

Completely different in nature. Calligraphers Association is a member of the affiliated organization of the China Federation of Literary and Art Circles, and accepts the leadership of the Party (201April 4 1987, the Propaganda Department of the CPC and the Party Group of the China Federation of Literary and Art Circles decided to set up a leading group of the China Producer Party).

Calligraphy Association is a non-governmental academic organization.

This brings different authority. Look at the list of leading members (take the previous two sessions as an example)
