In his opening speech, Chairman of the Union of Literature and Arts Associations of Da Nang Nguyen Nho Khiem said that this exhibition brought together 60 photographic works captured by photographers who have devoted all their heart to capturing the most beautiful and vivid moments of the Quan The Am Festival. Each photo is not only a work of art but also a story about the harmonious combination of folk beliefs and modern beauty, and that of tradition and creativity.

Through the lenses of photographers, visitors can admire beautiful images of the Quan The Am procession and the splendid Quan The Am Pagoda along with colourful festival moments. These works not only preserve beautiful memories but also convey messages of community solidarity, respect and gratitude for sacred spiritual values. The displayed photos are valuable documents that contribute to preserving and promoting the cultural identity of Da Nang in particular and the country in general.

Also on the same day, the children's painting exhibition "Ngu Hanh Son - Festival Season" was opened.

On display at the painting exhibition are works selected from a painting competition launched by the Union of Literature and Arts Associations of the city. These are rich in ideas and creativity, and imbued with the colours of childhood and the spirit of the festival. They reflect the sparkling images of lanterns on the Co Co River, the solemn atmosphere of the Quan The Am Festival, and the brilliant colours of the Non Nuoc Stone Carving Village.
