The art exhibition, which highlights the pride of Sri Lanka, was put together by veteran artist H. S. Sarath and featured contributions from new and talented artists. A large number of painters of all ages from around the country submitted their paintings for this exhibition, including those involved in the ‘Aragalaya’.

During his visit, President Wickremesinghe inquired about the artists who participated in the exhibition and was presented with several paintings, including a portrait of him. The artists requested that the President organize similar exhibitions at least once every three years and aim to target the tourism industry.
