The art exhibition was one of the programs highly recommended by the Saipan Artist Association. As early as March, when the exhibition was first held in Saipan, local media reported about it and Falun Gong in depth. During the festival, besides the exhibition, practitioners also demonstrated the Falun Gong exercises, distributed truth-clarifying materials and collected signatures. After having seen TV and newspaper reports, many people came to the festival to sign the petition. Many people also learned the truth from the exhibition. They were very happy and touched when they were presented with Falun Gong bookmarks and lotus flowers.
During the festival, practitioners also went on stage to perform a Fan Dance and Celestial Maiden Dance, as well as the Falun Gong exercises. The righteousness and beauty of the performance greatly attracted Saipan citizens as well as tourists from all over the world.
