From April 4th to 15th, 2023, The Mill on Angus Street in Adelaide will host the "Surviving the Sunset" fundraising art exhibition, organized by the Australian Myanmar Institute for Democracy, Human Rights and Peace Limited (AMIDHRP) and Amnesty International Australia SA/NT.
The theme "Surviving the Sunset" refers to the current situation in Myanmar, where the military-led junta known as the Tatmadaw overthrew the democratically elected government. This theme alludes to the need for the people of Myanmar to overcome the "sunset" of democracy in their country and to restore human rights and peace.
We welcome art lovers from the Adelaide community and beyond to join us for this exhibition. The collection features a selection of works from Myanmar and Myanmar-Australian artists, curated by LuLu Htet, founder of iLearnBurmese and Director of AMIDHRP.
In addition, the exhibition includes artwork donations from local Australian artists Kingsley-Wilson Head, Director-Secretary of AMIDHRP, Andrew Wilson-Head, and Peter Westerhoff, as well as some framed photographs from Anne Wilson.
Join us in supporting democracy and human rights in Myanmar by visiting "Surviving the Sunset" at The Mill on Angus Street in Adelaide.
Launch event on Tuesday 4th of April from 4 - 6 pm with food & drinks available.
Exhibition open 4 - 15 of April, Monday - Friday, 10 am - 4 pm.
