This will be followed by a presentation from Dr Pornthum Thumwimol on the forward-looking vision for the Society\u2019s grounds, including proposed landscape improvement plans aimed at making our premises more attractive, accessible, and welcoming to all those who visit.<\/p>\n<p>The second part of the activity will be a guided behind-the-scenes tour of the renovation works on the Kamthieng House Museum, to be led by Mr Euayporn. This exclusive tour will allow participants to observe first-hand the exceptional quality of the carpentry and foundational improvements currently underway, and to gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of the museum\u2019s role in preserving the spirit and traditions of northern Thailand.<\/p>\n<p>The Kamthieng House Museum is an architectural and ethnographic gem that reflects the spirit and traditions of the Lanna people. By integrating architectural conservation with thoughtful enhancements to the Society\u2019s grounds, we are aiming to create a warm and natural environment that invites curiosity, learning, and reflection for our members and visitors alike.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>We also warmly welcome non-members who are interested in joining us in this activity.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;2_5&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; background_color=&#8221;#1d2731&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;40px|40px|40px|40px|true|true&#8221; custom_padding_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;|40px||40px|true|true&#8221; custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; custom_css_main_element=&#8221;margin-bottom: 50px;&#8221; border_width_top=&#8221;4px&#8221; border_color_top=&#8221;#238cc1&#8243; border_width_bottom=&#8221;2px&#8221; border_color_bottom=&#8221;#238cc1&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_blurb title=&#8221;Date and time:&#8221; icon_placement=&#8221;left&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; header_level=&#8221;h3&#8243; header_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; background_layout=&#8221;dark&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||10px||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Wednesday, 25 June 2025 at 17:30<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_blurb title=&#8221;Venue:&#8221; icon_placement=&#8221;left&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; header_level=&#8221;h3&#8243; header_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; background_layout=&#8221;dark&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||10px||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>The Siam Society<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_blurb title=&#8221;Admission:&#8221; icon_placement=&#8221;left&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; header_level=&#8221;h3&#8243; header_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; background_layout=&#8221;dark&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||10px||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Free of charge (limit to 40 people)<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_blurb title=&#8221;Register at:&#8221; icon_placement=&#8221;left&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; header_level=&#8221;h3&#8243; header_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; background_layout=&#8221;dark&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||10px||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:chuleeporn@thesiamsociety.org\">chuleeporn@thesiamsociety.org<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":17164,"menu_order":0,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":""},"activities":[20],"class_list":["post-17163","activity","type-activity","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","activities-special-events"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thesiamsociety.org\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/activity\/17163","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thesiamsociety.org\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/activity"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thesiamsociety.org\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/activity"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thesiamsociety.org\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/14"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/thesiamsociety.org\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/activity\/17163\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17176,"href":"https:\/\/thesiamsociety.org\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/activity\/17163\/revisions\/17176"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thesiamsociety.org\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/17164"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thesiamsociety.org\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17163"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"activities","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thesiamsociety.org\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/activities?post=17163"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
