UK-Pak 70th Anniversary photo exhibition launches at BZU in Multan

The British High Commission opened a photo exhibition at the Art Gallery in Bahauddin Zakariya University to celebrate 70 years of UK-Pakistan links. The exhibition, called “Shared history, shared future”, is run by the British High Commission in Islamabad.

The Head of Communications at the British High Commission Samuel Heath said:

“We are delighted to bring our exhibition to the wonderful city of Multan and to host it in one of Punjab’s largest universities. The exhibition is a celebration of 70 years of friendship between our two countries – from our ties in trade, sports, politics, development, defence, education, infrastructure and culture to our close people to people links. The work that UKAid and British Council have been doing in the fields of education and economic empowerment in Punjab forms an important part of the exhibition.

“The exhibition has toured over 15 cities in both the UK and Pakistan and I am glad that we are finishing the tour in the important city of Multan.”

The exhibition has been displayed in nine cities across Pakistan. In the UK, the exhibition is currently on display until the end of the year in The Library of Birmingham, the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow and the Manchester Central Library.

Throughout the year, the British High Commission, in collaboration with the Pakistan High Commission in London, has been organising events and activities to mark 70 years of friendship between the UK and Pakistan. Details of these events are regularly featured on the British High Commission’s social media channels.
