The U.S. Embassy in Sri Lanka, together with the Central Cultural Fund’s Maritime Archaeology Unit, will host an exhibition and symposium from September 3 to 5 at the BMICH Cinema Lounge, Colombo, showcasing the documentation and preservation of artifacts from the Godawaya Shipwreck — one of Sri Lanka’s most significant maritime heritage sites.
The initiative also underscores the Indo-Pacific’s crucial role in maintaining peace and security, while safeguarding sovereign rights — a shared priority for both the United States and Sri Lanka.
The exhibition will open to the public at 11 a.m. on September 3, and will remain open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on September 4 and 5.
