(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Dafa practitioners were invited to demonstrate the exercises and to show the art exhibition, The Art of Truth-Compassion-Tolerance, in the locality of Calambrone in the province of Pisa at the Regina del Mare holiday resort on April 9 and 10, during a weekend dedicated to voluntary associations.

Practitioners showed the five exercises to the visitors and gave out materials in the main park of the resort. Some people wanted to learn the exercises and asked about the closest practice site.

The exhibition room of the resort hotel was given to practitioners to display the paintings. This was the first opportunity many people had had to hear about Falun Dafa and the ongoing human rights violations that Falun Dafa practitioners have been suffering in China since 1999.

Because of the art exhibition, many people were able to learn about the beauty of the practice. Some asked practitioners questions because they wanted to have a deeper understanding of what is going on in China. The exhibition showed how following the principles of Falun Dafa, Truth-Compassion-Forbearance, can allow people to peacefully resist a brutal persecution like the one happening in China under the rule of the Communist regime.
