1/ Hong Kong’s Architectural Heritage: Historical Significance and Contemporary Challenges
| Date: | 2026/10/3 (Saturday) |
| Time: | 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. |
| Venue: | Hong Kong Central Library (Lecture Theatre, G/F) |
| Description: | Hong Kong’s architectural culture blends traditional Chinese elements with Western modern styles, presenting a distinctive “East-meets-West” character. By reviewing the evolution of Hong Kong architecture, we will examine how changes reflect Hong Kong people’s living habits and needs. It will analyse the impact of urban transformation on architectural demand and discuss strategies for effectively conserving characteristic buildings in a rapidly urbanising environment to safeguard Hong Kong’s collective memory and historical value. |
2/ Cheongsam and Cantonese Opera in Hong Kong: Dual Symbols of Cultural Transmission
| Date: | 2026/9/12 (Saturday) |
| Time: | 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. |
| Venue: | Hong Kong Central Library (Lecture Theatre, G/F) |
| Description: | Cheongsam and Cantonese opera respectively symbolize the intangible cultural heritage of “dress aesthetics” and “performing arts.” By examining their historical development in Hong Kong, we will analyse contemporary practices of cultural transmission. The discussion will focus on concrete teaching methods, performance formats, and community engagement used today to preserve and promote these cultural heritages and will explore how these traditional arts adapt to the contemporary cultural environment to ensure their continued viability. |
