Jockey Club Community Arts Biennale

Now in its second edition, the Jockey Club Community Arts Biennale – sponsored by The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust and organised by the Hong Kong Youth Arts Foundation (YAF) – is a platform for connecting people and exploring local communities.
Over several months, 24 local professional artists and thousands of young people visit communities in Hong Kong to meet residents and local craftsmen, learn about neighbourhood histories and create art that celebrates community stories. The process brings together people of different ages, backgrounds, skills and ethnicities, uncovering hidden stories of everyday lives and reaffirming a sense of community.
