The Chris Dodge Gallery is grateful to U Paw Thame for his contributions to the Museum. An artist, teacher and gallery owner, Paw Thame is one of Burma’s brightest lights of the past 50 years. He was co-founder of the Peacock Gallery, a pioneer in the Yangon art scene in the late 1970s and 80s. Paw Thame emigrated to the US in 1984 and currently lives in Texas.
The Gallery would also like recognize Gerald Kelly and the Kelly family of Dublin, Ireland for their support and contributions to the Museum.
