An exhibition, “Ahnu Thutaythana” (Pursuing Arts in Research) wants to deliver the humanities through the arts from tomorrow (Saturday) to Dec. 3 at the Secretariat.

The exhibition is organized by the Enlightened Myanmar Research Foundation under the theme of “integrating democracy into everyday action” to extend social research beyond academia to the public.

“When we say art and research, many people thought it was different fields. The two interlink as part of humanity,” said Daw Myat Thet Thitsar, CEO of the foundation.
