Seeing the brutality of the persecution, people are shocked

Due to its beautiful scenery, pleasant weather, and multiple recreation sites, Balboa Park is a very good place for people to enjoy their leisure time. It's busy all year around, so it has also become a routine spot for local practitioners to introduce Falun Dafa to the public. After the first Art Exhibition hosted there on May 13, the practitioners decided to host many more times there, to help more people to learn the facts about Falun Gong.

On May 20, people came to the exhibition in an endless stream. After going through the works, an artist showed his respect to the artistic attainment and ideas of each work. He said, as an artist, he felt these paintings have extraordinary connotations.

A young man came to ask a practitioner to explain the meaning of the painting Tiger Bench. Learning why the painting was created, and about the persecution of Falun Gong, the young man knit his brows, especially when he heard that the persecution is still happening. He said that the persecution is inconceivable.

People came to the exhibition from all over. Many learned the stories behind each painting. People were stunned, and expressed their deep sympathy. Some people were in tears, some others asked how to help. Some people signed their names to petitions, while many others expressed interest in learning Falun Gong.
