AmCham Romania Events Drawing Freedom - An Unframed Dialogue with Dan Perjovschi/ Special Thanksgiving Event

Drawing Freedom - An Unframed Dialogue with Dan Perjovschi/ Special Thanksgiving Event

Nov 22, 2018

Thanksgiving is traditionally a day of giving thanks for the blessing and harvest during the year.

At AmCham Romania it is the best moment in the year to express our gratitude to AmCham members that have contributed to AmCham’s activity throughout 2018, sharing their valuable expertise and time to advance AmCham initiatives.

For this year’s Thanksgiving celebration, AmCham continues the special Business Meets Culture format, launched in 2017!

AmCham is pleased to announce that our guest representing culture will be Dan Perjovschi, an internationally acclaimed artist who comments on the absurdities and cynicisms of the "brave new world" in his daily drawings, thrown with a few strokes. With his figures and scenarios, Perjovschi expansively populates the walls, floors, corridors or windows of the art institutions.

On November 22, Dan Perjovschi will use words to illustrate with his signature piercing irony, topics from the world news as well as general social phenomena that affect the artist.

The AmCham Thanksgiving event is an invitation to gratitude, in a business but relaxed atmosphere that facilitates open networking with members of the AmCham community.

A tasty cocktail-dinner, a central part of the Thanksgiving celebration, will not miss from our AmCham family Thanksgiving!
