You can find Surviving the Sunset at The Mill Exhibition Space,
located at 154 Angas St, Kaurna Yarta (Adelaide).The Exhibition Space is open Monday-Friday, 10am-4pm.
The Mill is pleased to host the Surviving the Sunset fundraising art exhibition, organised by the Australian Myanmar Institute for Democracy, Human Rights and Peace Limited (AMIDHRP) and Amnesty International.
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, Peter Westerhoff, as well as some framed photographs from Anne Wilson.
Contact the registered charities of AMIDHRP and Amnesty International to find out more about their programs and how to donate to their charitable aid causes.
