Art for Change Beyond Ability Exhibition Opens in Bangkok
The National Gallery in Bangkok is hosting an inclusive art exhibition from November 7 to 27, 2026, highlighting the talents of artists with disabilities.
The Art for Change Beyond Ability exhibition, organized by the Art No Hand Foundation in collaboration with various disability-focused art networks, is currently being held at the National Gallery (Chao Fa Art Gallery) in Bangkok. Running from November 7 to November 27, 2026, the event aims to shift societal perceptions by focusing on the capabilities and potential of artists with disabilities rather than their limitations. The official opening ceremony is scheduled for Wednesday, November 11, from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM, with Minister of Culture Sabida Thaiseth presiding over the event. For residents and visitors, this exhibition offers a unique opportunity to engage with diverse perspectives and support inclusive creative spaces. Despite growing awareness regarding equality, many artists with disabilities still face significant barriers in accessing professional networks and career opportunities. This exhibition seeks to challenge the traditional narrative that positions these artists solely as recipients of aid, instead promoting their professional recognition. While the exhibition dates are confirmed, those planning to visit are encouraged to check the National Gallery's official channels for any potential changes to operating hours or special programming during the event period.
