RE: Tai Kok Tsui – Public Space Art Intervention Open Call 01 - Tai Kok Tsui Turn Around with ImaginationsHong Kong Arts Centre (HKAC)
With the 6th round of the Urban Renewal Heritage Preservation and District Revitalisation Funding Scheme granted from the Urban Renewal Fund (URF), the Public Art Team at the Hong Kong Arts Centre (HKAC) presents the 'RE: Tai Kok Tsui' public art and community art project, the project is supported by Yau Tsim Mong District Office as the Strategic Partner.
Tai Kok Tsui is the quintessential Hong Kong community that blends old traditions with new happenings. Over the decades, neighbours have come together to create a vibrant and decent living environment, fostering a sense of community and sharing collective experiences.
RE: Tai Kok Tsui encourages neighbours to make a slight turn and reimagine a new vision for an old district that embraces the curation of new living experiences. It provides an avenue for turning the past into a future that values sustainability, art, culture, and creativity.
