One Earth One Family Charity Art Exhibition In partnership with IDEAS Taiwan, KAS students through our Future Leadership Program (FLP) helped plan and bring this meaningful community event to life, gaining valuable leadership and real-world experience throughout the process. The exhibition featured 143 artists and 169 artworks from painters of all ages and backgrounds, including many talented KAS student artists. With more than 100 paintings sold, proceeds from the event supported the Taiwan Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (TSPCA) and the Kaohsiung City Down Syndrome Association. We are proud of our students for demonstrating leadership, creativity, and service through this impactful event, and they already look forward to participating again next year. #KASDragons #FutureLeadershipProgram
