Touring Exhibition?, Maybe!

There is a chance that there couldt be a touring exhibition  of the Penticton Art Gallery shows. "Families of the Dump" might be a packaged together with Greg Constantine's Rohingya photos and sent on a tour (not sure what kind). Not sure if it will happen, do not know any possible details. Right now it is all a big MAYBE. Hope it does happen, it would help raise awareness into the ethnic peoples of Burma, the genocide of the Rohingya ethnic group and the story of the Mon-Karen people who live and work he Mae Sot dump.

If the combined photographs could travel as an exhibition to other galleries, that would be simply wonderful! It is Paul Cs, idea, the curator of the PAG. He wrote that the Penticton Art Gallery exhibitions have been doing well and that he believes a combined traveling exhibition would have legs and interest.

Hope, hope this happens!
