Burmese New Year Show
June 18, 2026
This is an art exhibition and a fundraiser. 100% of proceeds will be donated to Myanmar Aid Organization. It will be taking place on the first day of Thingyan, also known as Burmese New Years, in Metuchen at the Bowery Art Collective space.
Thingyan is celebrated in the middle of April and it marks the end of the Burmese calendar year. It is celebrated with a water festival throughout the country as it is symbolic to washing away the sins and bad luck of the previous year and starting fresh to a new chapter. As most of you know, going back to Burma is not accessible and hasn't been for years due to military occupation and recovery from natural disaster, but I would love to celebrate and ring in the new year with you all here and share my heritage and culture with you.
