US Ambassador Michele Sison declared open ‘The Aztec Goddess of San Francisco’ – a photography exhibition by Fulbright Alumnus Deshan Tennekoon, at the American Center, which is now open to the public until 30 January.
Deshan is the first photographer to attend a Fulbright Program in US and some of his finest photos are being exhibited to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Fulbright Commission in Sri Lanka. He is currently part of a group documenting the changing landscape of Kalpitiya, a high-biodiversity coastal area in Sri Lanka. The Fulbright Commission is the only independent academic exchange commission of its kind in island, promoting mutual understanding between the United States and Sri Lanka.
Entrance is free.
