Silabha ART & Cultural Program
So what’s Silabha? We know you are asking! It’s the Thai word for all things to do with art and culture. Culture is at the heart of everything we do - it shapes our ideas, behaviour, expression, and perception of the world around us.
The Silabha Art and Cultural Program brings together a range of extraordinary artistic and cultural events and people from all over the world to share and express ideas and experiences relating to HIV/AIDS in creative ways – bringing out the issues which affect all of us into the open and helping to build greater understanding.
The Silabha Art and Cultural Program is part of a wider Community Program which we hope will draw together communities affected by AIDS to informally learn, teach and share so that people may take home with them renewed energy, commitment and enlightenment. The Silabha Art and Cultural Program, along with the Scientific and Leadership Programs make up the overall, unified program for the Conference.
WHAT?
There are exhibitions, a film festival, music in the streets, modern and traditional dance, poetry, local story telling, puppets, paintings, photography, fashion and more… International talent will interact with the conference delegates and the people of Bangkok to bring AIDS issues alive.
WHO?
Top artists, performers, films and talent from Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Brazil, Burma, Canada, Cambodia, China, France, Ghana, Hong Kong, Hungary, India, Indonesia, Iran, Jamaica, Japan, Kenya, Mexico, Nepal, Namibia, Peru, Sierre Leone, South Africa, Thailand, Uganda, UK, Ukraine, USA, Zambia and Zimbabwe.
In addition to a vibrant cultural program at Impact Muang Thong Thani, a feast of activities will take place around Bangkok.
