ArtWalk Highlights

Hollywood Road was buzzing with excitement despite a worrying start in the early evening when rain was pouring down in Central Hong Kong. Gallery hopping during ArtWalk is so much more fun compared to our regular visits to the galleries. For one thing, there were a lot more light-hearted people who came to find out more about art and to unwind in the evening while enjoying some drinks and snacks. It sure is also a great way to mingle around, to meet like minded individuals in a less rigid environment compared to art fairs and auctions.

Four to five hours would have been an ambitious feat to go through all the galleries in entire Hong Kong! Although the shuttle bus service was a great facility, but there just wasn’t enough time to go to Aberdeen, Wan Chai or Chai Wan.

Here are some highlights of the night that we must ABSOLUTely share with our readers:
