The exhibition ‘Bangkok 242 a Space for Sharing’ is one of the projects continuously conducted by Bangkok Art and Culture Centre to raise awareness of social issues by working with various social sectors. Creative activities and contemporary media arts are used to communicate ideas related to social issues, leading to learning, exchange of ideas, and support for social and community engagement as well as encouraging a cross-disciplinary approach in expanding the concept of challenging contemporary art formats for the public.
