Artists, cultural intermediaries, academics, and other interested parties from around the region gathered to discuss their experiences melding arts with social action in Asia, especially during volatile times accentuated by the COVID-19 pandemic. What set this conference apart from others I have attended in the past was the theme of A Meeting Point on Art & Social Action in Asia.
