A Mind-friendly Estate Model at Cho Yiu Chuen

Venue: Cho Yiu Chuen 
Date: 2022.11.01 - 2024.11.30
Price: Free 

Funded by Lee Hysan Foundation, the two-year initiative, “A Mind-friendly Estate Model at Cho Yiu Chuen”, began in November 2022 with the objectives of strengthening the community bonds and the "330 well-being" of the residents in Cho Yiu Chuen.

 

The project aims at connecting the community, promoting mental wellness with our ambassadors, and engaging the residents through the power of art!

 

Surrounded by the pleasant hilly landscape, Cho Yiu Chuen is an ideal living environment in this hustle and bustle city. However, the community faces certain problems such as remote location, inconvenient transportation, and aging population. As one of the co-organizers, HKAC presents a series of public art programmes to connect the community through art and well-being with our local artists.

 

 Programmes including:

 

  • Public Engagement Activity - Draw Our Community!
                Join us to color our community and share your precious moments in Cho Yiu Chuen. The artist draws a picture for you! 
 

 Participating Artist: Moving Drawing

 

  • Mural Art & Related Art Workshops
Starting from three curatorial angles, the mural art illustrates the past, present, and future of Cho Yiu Chuen.

 

Each mural artist conducts a series of workshops relating to their mural art creation at the project beginning. Not only do we encourage interactions within the community, but we also collect stories and turn them into inspiration for our mural art. Join hands and co-create our new urban art scape! Programmes including:

 

        Mural Art 1: Rediscover Cho Yiu Chuen with Five Senses & Flying Imagination through Art & Well-being
