Organized by Orient Foundation and Art For All Society (AFA), the annual event sponsored by ICM, “Autumn Salon” is now open for application. Stepping into the 10th anniversary, we keep our initial aspiration, which is providing a platform to the Macau art practitioners for showcasing their latest works. The selected artworks will be showcased in November at Casa Garden of Orient Foundation.

Furthermore, in order to encourage Macau young artists, Orient Foundation launches the “Orient Foundation Art Award” each year. The winner will have an opportunity to visit Portugal in 2020 for a month as artist residency (the total prize of MOP$50,000 including air ticket and accommodation). Winning and selected artworks will be showcased together with the selected artworks of “Autumn Salon” in Casa Garden. Grab your chance and let your work shine!

“Autumn Salon 2019” is partly sponsored by the Cultural Affairs Bureau of Macao SAR Government. Media partners are Hoje Macau and Ponto Final. The opening of the exhibition will be held in early November at Orient Foundation. For any enquiries please contact with us at 2836 6064 or email to info@afamacau.com.
