Dear Partners and Friends of SEA Junction,

Exciting things are happening at SEA Junction this September. We will be hosting a new exhibition here at the BACC, showcasing Indonesian art at the junction of traditional and contemporary, as well as bringing our “The Coup Years” exhibition with updates to Jakarta, along with accompanying events to keep the conversation on Myanmar in the public discourse.

The #WhatshappeninginMyanmar Update and the Monthly Mini Book Fair will enrich our program as usual. Please also check out our Mural “Together We Build” at Thonglor House (located between Thong Lor Soi 9 and 11) and use #TogetherWeBuildMural to mark your visit.

We hope you continue to find our programs of interest. Your support is more crucial than ever at a time when civic spaces and resources for civil society are curtailed all over the world.

Warmly,
Lia Sciortino Sumaryono
