Pablo Picasso famously once said that "the purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls." Consider the meaning of this great quote when you take in the collection at Studio Howard.

This display of artworks is often on the itineraries of travelers to Downtown George Town. But Studio Howard isn't the only drawcard in the area. Kek Lok Si Temple, Penang Hill, and Pinang Peranakan Mansion are some other recommended attractions close by.
