Noticeable was the opening of the oil painting exhibition by Hoang Nhu Thuy An at Lieu Quan Buddhist Cultural Center. Hoang Nhu Thuy An is Hoang Nhu Bua’s pseudonym, born in 1948, originally from Cau Hai (Cao Do) in Phu Loc, Hue, but currently living in Da Lat. The special thing is that all those paintings were painted after his stroke culminating in hemiplegia. He has learnt to paint with his left hand since then.

Along with regular cultural activities, Lieu Quan Buddhist Cultural Center has collaborated with a number of units and organizations to implement meaningful cultural programs, including seminars and workshops related to the preservation and promotion of Buddhist cultural heritage.
