Artists from Jiangsu and Yunnan provinces recently held an art exhibition to display their paintings and exchange them for moon cakes. The moon cakes acquired by these painters will be given to low-income families in Kunming to ensure they are able to join in the festivities of this year's Mid-Autumn Festival, Kunming Daily reports.
