ĐÀ NẴNG — An exhibition of 48 wood carvings, wood sculpture, oil, acrylic and watercolour paintings that were created by 44 artists are on display for the public at the central city’s Fine Arts Museum at 78 Lê Duẩn street.

It’s an endeavour of local artists to showcase works that flag up the challenges brought by COVID-19.

The exhibition will open doors for free until December 20. All visitors must use a QR Code for health declaration, and preventive measures for COVID-19 protection.
