RE: Tai Kok Tsui - 'Community Co-Creation Laboratory'
Launched in late 2023, including 4 different series of workshops. Creative teams assembled by artists and community members to collaborate with local organisations and shops in Tai Kok Tsui to design and implement innovative programmes, turning imagination into tangible reality. The lab fosters an environment encouraging members to delve into the interplay between art and public spaces through observations, discussions, professional skill development, collaborative experiments, and localised trials. These endeavours are intended to establish a robust foundation of valuable insights and practical knowledge for forthcoming community art experiences.
'Community Editorial and Writing Workshop' one of the workshops in the Lab Series features editing, reporting, and writing for local publications, fostering a deeper connection with the community. Co-creating by the Lab Members, the first volume of a publication of 'Ten Cents Paper Zine' is launched in February 2024, sharing the captivating and inspiring stories of Tai Kok Tsui and its people.

'Ten Cents Paper Zine'- Vol.1
'Community Bookshelves' is the programme that local stakeholders, Lab Members and artists co-create and tripartite collaborate in and for the Tai Kok Tsui community. There are 5 local organisations and shops that host one of our community bookshelves, a wide variety of reading interests as suggested by the programme participants. It inspires a love of reading, builds community, and sparks creativity by fostering neighborhood book exchanges.
'Night Street Photography Workshops' and 'Take a Walk in Dusk' Tour encourage people to discover the beauty of Tai Kok Tsui. Its bustling energy, dynamic atmosphere, and vibes can differ greatly depending on the time of day.
'Take a Walk in Dusk' Tour’ based on Tai Kok Tsui's unique urban fabric and the concept of healing in urban spaces, an artist encouraged the participants to explore their routes for taking a healing journey in the community. The little bliss of discovering interesting elements and details of TKT brings you a break from your busy daily life, take a breath and enjoy the moment.
A Tai Kok Tsui urban fabric and healing map will be co-created and tailor-made by the artist and Lab Members.
