Britain-Burma Society Lecture – October Reception 2019

2 October 2019 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

£20

Our new season of meetings is about to begin and we start as usual with our traditional October Reception. Our President, Robert Gordon will be there with Pam to meet and greet old friends and their guests, and welcome new members.

The evening will be a largely social event but will again be the occasion of our Annual General Meeting.

Professor Arthur Sun Myint, Tin Tin Sann and Khin Myint will be displaying their works on the evening. They are avant-garde contemporary artists from Burma and exhibited regularly in the “MOVEMENT” exhibitions in the 60s and 70s in Burma together with celebrated artists like Paw Oo Thet, Khin Maung Yin and U Nan Way. They are still actively painting and exhibiting in London.
We will also be entertained with live guitar music by Justin King (Hla Win Aung).

The new Britain-Burma society website will be launched at the reception and there will be a live on-line demonstration of the website. Special thanks to Jorge Ba-oh for the speedy construction of the website.
