Festival Celebrates Cambodian Arts in New York City
Season of Cambodia, a festival that celebrates the revival of Cambodian arts and culture, kicked off its two-month run in New York City this week. Conceived by the Phnom Penh-based nonprofit Cambodian Living Arts, the festival showcases dance, visual arts, film, music, discussions, and more, in venues across New York City, and features 125 artists from Cambodia. Season of Cambodia was a recipient of the New York City program's Charles E. Culpeper Arts and Culture grant, which aims to support the artists and arts and cultural organizations that make New York City one of the world's most dynamic creative capitals.
