After completing the painting exhibition in Kiev, the capital city of Ukraine, we went to Dnepropetrovsk City, Ukraine. Russian practitioners contacted the local government and obtained support for the exhibition. The government offered us free the largest museum of the city located downtown on Marx Street to hold the "Benefit Painting Exhibition to Rescue Falun Gong Practitioners Being Tortured" and to clarify the truth.
During the exhibition, the museum and city government officials came to congratulate us. From the start at 10:00 a.m. to the end at 6:00 p.m., reporters came in succession to gather information about the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners. I recounted my experience of being persecuted for 8 months. Reporters came from the three largest TV stations in the city and six newspapers. Every day, hundreds of people came to look at the paintings. Some teachers led students to the exhibition to learn the truth of Falun Gong. The innocent children started learning the hand gestures by following the practitioners demonstrating the exercises. The practitioners placed truth-clarifying literature and photos of the Journey of Fa-rectification in the exhibition hall. They also set up a TV in the exhibition hall and showed the program in Russian on the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners in China. The efforts of Russian and Ukrainian practitioners yielded good results. The successful exhibition allowed many media, government officials and local people to learn the truth of Falun Gong.
