Opening Ceremony Nov. 13th at 10:30 AM
 
 
The Art of Zhen Shan Ren (Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance) returns to the Rayburn Building after its initial debut there in 2004.  This art exhibition features works created by practitioners of Falun Gong, a spiritual meditation practice deeply rooted in traditional Chinese culture.  Many artists personally endured imprisonment or torture in communist China due to their adherence to the principles of truthfulness, compassion, and tolerance. The artwork vividly depicts stories of Falun Gong practitioners’ immense suffering and triumphant courage.  The exhibition has traveled to over 900 cities across 50 countries, inspiring audiences worldwide with its portrayal of faith and righteousness amid persecution.
