Rahmat Bahgia 2024 is an immersive art and community event that celebrates the vibrant connection between art, community, and shared memories, with a nostalgic focus on reliving childhood and iconic cultural objects familiar to Malaysians. The event will showcase life-sized replicas of beloved items, art performances, music shows, and creative workshops, and the highlight will be the unveiling of Lorong Seni, Jalan Negara Kita, a permanent creative space designed to foster artistic collaboration and cultural pride. We find out more from Nazura Rahime, the Gallery Owner of A.P. Art Gallery, Anderson Ee, the Curator of the show, and Ahmad Hakym, the co-founder of KLsketchnation.
