Dedicated to hosting events around art, architecture, and community, this space nurtures dialogue and collaboration within Cambodia’s creative community. In 2026, it will become the venue for a major event program celebrating Vann Molyvann’s legacy and the vitality of Cambodia’s modern architectural heritage.
