They are there telling her what to do 24:7:365.

Beyond Environmental Arts Festival 2023

Hong Kong’s natural environment is a delight to explore! In the spring, bushes and trees are covered with pretty flowers; in the heat of the summer, beaches call us to swim; in the autumn, the landscape is transformed by bushy miscanthus grass and bright maple leaves; and in the winter, the cool weather is perfect for hiking. This July, the Beyond Environmental Arts Festival returns with a series of fun, free activities inspired by the theme “Back to Nature”. The programme includes a theatrical performance, creative arts workshops, installation art exhibitions, a choir performance and a dance video. Designed to promote environmental awareness and sustainable development through the arts, the festival encourages young people to slow down and take action to protect our planet, and teaches us that even small changes to our everyday life can make a huge difference for our planet. Online registration opens on 12 June at POPTICKET. Stay tuned for more details.

Miller Performing Arts: #BeTheChange: Kasama

“Bridge our gap, communicate with love. Despite our differences, we can unite.” A dedication to Hong Kong’s domestic workers – our community’s companions and carers. The dance and spoken word film Kasama (Tagalog for “together”) is a testament to the strength of the human spirit, capturing the determination and hope of immigrants who leave their homes in search of work to support their families. Written by migrant domestic worker Maria Nemy Lou Rocio, the co-founder of The Migrant Writers of Hong Kong, Kasama is a call for empathy and understanding in a community that can often feel fragmented and divisive. Inspired by her creative work, professional choreographer Kelsey Ang worked with a group of Hong Kong Youth Arts Foundation dancers to bring the spoken word performance to life. ​The Migrant Writers of Hong Kong was established in March 2021 as an inclusive and nurturing environment for writers in the migrant community. The group use their platform and programmes to promote mental health awareness through creative writing. Their first anthology Ingat (Take Care) is set to launch in autumn 2023.
