Los Angeles Senior Artist’s Art Exhibit at H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III Cultural and Art Museum

The Los Angeles Senior Artist's Art Exhibit: Collections from the Treasure Chest, an exhibit specially held for senior painting artists

The Los Angeles Senior Artist’s Art Exhibit: Collections from the Treasure Chest, an exhibit specially held for senior painting artists of 50 or older ages, will soon take place at the H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III Cultural and Art Museum on October 28. There will be about 100 paintings to be shown in this exhibit. The artists are all from Southern California. The exhibit will be open for one week through November 4. This exhibit is a public beneficial and free event and is open to all people.

As a non-profit organization, the H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III Cultural and Art Museum is dedicated to promoting art and culture. Additionally, it has always been paying attention to various disadvantaged groups for the purposes of advancing community development, social stability and harmonic family lives. Since its opening, the museum has held several beneficial art shows and competitions for school students as well as autistic youths. Besides providing opportunities for the young people to show their own artworks and giving encouragement to those talented and hard- working students in developing their art careers, those events also called the attention of the society to the various disadvantaged groups.

The Senior Artists’ Art Exhibit to be held by the museum this time will showcase senior artists and is, as those previous beneficial art events did to the young students, meant to give them opportunities and encouragements so that they can again show the world their talents in their golden ages, have more productive, fulfilling and colorful lives, and be more affirmative about their self-values.
