The charity art program "Smell of Kitchen Smoke" season 2 - theme "Homeland Flavor" is implemented as a sharing, with the desire to bring spiritual warmth to the people.
The program is organized by director Jos Tuan Dung and his crew, continuing the charity journey that has been maintained for many years. According to the organizers, the activity is not only limited to one art night but also aims to build the belief that, in difficult times, the community is always ready to support each other.
Few people know that for season 2 to take place, director Jos Tuan Dung has gone through many considerations in the context of a still challenging economy. The pressure to organize a program that both ensures artistic quality and has Tet gifts for people is not small. However, he believes that if done with kindness and responsibility, the spreading value will be greater than the difficulties to face.
The program chose Vung Liem (Vinh Long) as a stopover, giving more than 100 Tet gifts to households in difficult circumstances in the locality. The organizers emphasized the spirit of sharing regardless of circumstances, in order to spread the message Tet is the season of community and love.
Music became a bridge in the performance night with the participation of many artists. Singer Giao Linh performed the classic bolero song "Vung la me bay" - a work that has been associated with her for many decades. She also sang a duet with Que Nuong in "Cau chuyen dau nam", bringing a close spring atmosphere. The female singer shared that she has spent many years participating in community service activities, considering it a way to repay the audience.
When I miss Tet, I miss the performance trips in the poor countryside. Those experiences help me appreciate the value of the profession more," she said.
Famous singer Hoạ Mi contributed her voice with two familiar spring songs "Mộng chiều xuân" and "Gái xuân". She said that using her voice to share with the community is a responsibility that artists should maintain.
The performance also had the participation of Thuy Duong with "Spring Serenade" and many community performances, creating a close atmosphere. People not only enjoyed but also contributed to the program, creating a cohesive space.
According to the crew, the program does not aim to change anyone's life, but believes that a gift at the right time or a warm song in the days leading up to Tet is enough to help someone gain more faith. When spring comes, what remains is not just the familiar kitchen smoke, but sharing and hope spreading.
