Where can you find a children’s picture book museum, contemporary shadow puppetry, Orang Asli art, batik, photography exhibits, miniature dioramas, paintings, printmaking, and theatre space under one roof?

GMBB, a creative community mall in Bukit Bintang in Kuala Lumpur, checks all these boxes - and more, as it also hosts activities such as workshops, exhibitions, screenings and performances regularly.
