TESTIMONIES

“I was happy to see arts organizations come together to host this event. I learned more about Cambodia’s history, and I think that the audience felt this too. The festival reached an international audience, and showed them Cambodia’s potential in arts,”

“This was my first time joining this kind of event in Phnom Penh. I could learn and share experiences with artists from different provinces and show what we do to the public. I learned more about the past and present of Cambodia’s history. I want to have this festival again so more young people can take part!”
