Through the Eyes of Children. Children’s Art Expo in Bali March 21 – April 30, 2010 in Support of the East Bali Poverty Project.

The children assisted by the East Bali Poverty Project’s (EBPP) will launch a second art exhibition on from March 21 – April 30, 2010 presenting 30 paintings in various mediums.

Following a successful inaugural exhibition held in June 2009, this year’s exhibition will return to the Three Monkeys Cuisine and Art Café in Ubud. Last year’s exhibition saw the art work of the talented mountain children snapped up by eager collectors, precipitating an early closure to the exhibition. Accordingly, the public is urged to visit this year event as soon as possible following its opening on March 21st.

Partially in response to the talent displayed at last year’s show, a number of professional artists have visited the children over the past year to share their knowledge and skills.
