In celebration and support of Sri Lankan art and artists the seventh season of Leo Art titled ‘Strokes at the Mews’ was recently held at the Park Street Mews.
From the moment Leo Burnett opened his doors on August 5th, 1935, he set out a bowl of apples at the reception. This marked the beginning of Leo Burnett spirit of giving. 81 years later, the local office continued with the same spirit, and designated Leo Burnett’s Anniversary as the day to Give Back. Leo Burnett Sri Lanka marked this important milestone with the latest edition of Leo Art, titled “Strokes at the Mews”. Leo Art endeavors to recognize Sri Lankan artists by providing them with the opportunity to reach for the stars. This year, the programme showcased over 70 breathtaking works of art at a concessionary rate throughout the duration of the exhibition.
