The Secretary for Social Affairs and Culture of the Macao Special Administrative Region Government hosted the plenary meetings of the Committee of Cultural Industries and the Tourism Development Committee on 15th and 16th November respectively. It was mentioned in the meetings that the Macao SAR Government will present 'ART MACAO', in co-operation with various government departments and the six gaming operators, that will take place between May to October next year.

Maximum advantage will be taken of the gaming and entertainment industry's hotel lobbies and leading MICE facilities, in tandem with those of the Cultural Affairs Bureau and other departments, as well as university campuses, and transform them into an exhibition hall decorated by the works of modern artists. The aforementioned will also co-ordinate with multiple arts and creative activities such as the Macao International Music Festival, Macao Arts Festival, and International Youth Dance Festival, to elevate the aesthetic perceptions and cultural image of Macao whilst facilitating the evolution of Macao as a world centre of tourism and leisure.
