A new phase of the Arts Corner will be launched by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD) in Hong Kong Park starting from January 1, 2024. Visitors can stroll around a wide array of traditional and trendy handicrafts and arts services stalls while enjoying their leisure in the park.
The 24th phase of the Arts Corner in Hong Kong Park will run from January 1 till December 31 next year, and will be open from noon to 6pm on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays at the outdoor area near the Flagstaff House Museum of Tea Ware in the park. The Arts Corner comprises 10 handicrafts and arts services stalls, displaying and selling various kinds of handicrafts and artistic works such as fabric crafts and ornaments, as well as providing cultural and arts services including painting and portrait sketching.
"The Arts Corner aims to enhance public interest in arts and enrich the arts atmosphere in Hong Kong. It will also make the park a more appealing and enjoyable place for visitors," a spokesman for the department said.
Apart from Hong Kong Park, an Arts Fun Fair and another Arts Corner are being held at Kowloon Park and Victoria Park respectively.
