March is a wonderful time in Hong Kong for art lovers. Hong Kong Arts Month sees inspiring art initiatives and celebrations of both local and international artists all over the city.
Last year, Asia Society hosted its first-ever art after-party – and good times were had by all. This year, our artsy friends have stepped it up a notch by adding the groovy theme “Hong Kong in the 1960s”. All art lovers are called on to visit this iconic space for a night of live music from the 60s, nostalgic local snacks with a modern twist and free-flow drinks.
