Out of the blue, Bangkok governor Aswin Kwanmuang recently floated the idea that City Hall should take over managing the Bangkok Art and Culture Centre (BACC). It earned 18.8 million baht from rent, 13 million baht in donations and another 5.3 million baht from all other sources. That meant the total income in 2017 was 82.2 million baht, while the total operational cosst were 75.8 million baht. I also met a French teacher who took his French class to an art exhibition. I would also hope that anyone who visits an art exhibition centre always learns something new.
