Press Release - For Immediate Release

Art Sunday

Sunday 1st November 2009
From 11am – 5pm FREE

Hong Kong’s art and cultural landscape has recently undergone a renaissance, from the art auction rooms to the international acclaim of local artists. Galleries are blossoming and a sense of excitement, long associated with just the hallowed streets of downtown New York, is gathering locally and internationally about Hong Kong’s potential as Asia’s art capital.
 
Now, Hong Kong art galleries in Central, SoHo, and Sheung Wan, have come together to bring a sense of community, education and easy accessibility back into art. On Sunday November 1st, these art galleries will open from 11am – 5pm for Art Sunday, continuing on the first Sunday of the month thereafter.
 
This free event will allow families, friends, neighbours and those out for a leisurely Sunday afternoon, to engage with art, chat to their local gallerists, and listen to talks about art and artwork. Children will be able to participate in creative workshops and learn about art in a fun and interactive environment.

Local cafes and restaurants will join in sponsoring the event, providing brunch and drinks for local participating galleries and Art Sunday promotions for the day.
 
Check the events and participating galleries pages for more information and/or email us.
