The reception came at the conclusion of an AIE artist exchange in which Dunn traveled through Kathmandu and Nepal, meeting with prominent local artists, arts organizations, collectives, and art students. Over the course of the week, Dunn spoke with art council members, conducted workshops, and gave presentations to art students on what it means to be a professional artist.
