Chance for new artists

The Department of Cultural Promotion (DCP) has opened the Thailand Cultural Centre up to new artists to present their works to the public.

 

DCP chief Prissana Pongtadsirikul told a press conference yesterday about the “Sing, Dance and Compose Music” project, in which young artists can make use of the centre’s space to present their works and talents through six activities free-of-charge. 
 
The activities are a May 27 concert featuring international-award-winning Thai singers; the “NERANNENAH” concert by the Thailand Choral Association on June 16; the “Ruam Smai Big Band” concert by musicians of the Office of Contemporary Art And Culture’s Musical Potential Development Project from June 29-July 1; the “Mother of Land” singing contest for a Bt100,000 cash prize from July 6-7 and Thai folk-song concert on July 8; a Wind Orchestra concert by young musicians from Bansomdejchaopraya Rajabhat University on July 13-15; and a classical music concert by the Youth Music Promotion Foundation on August 12.
