Other Literary Activities /Other Exhibitions /Creative Writing Event cum Roving Exhibition on “Chivalrous Heroes: My Favourite Characters in Martial Arts Novels” /Hong Kong Pop Culture Festival 2024 Library Tie-in Activities /Activities in the Chinese Culture Promotion Series
In support of the Hong Kong Pop Culture Festival 2024 which themed on “Arts & Action”, and the first Hong Kong Reading for All Day, the Hong Kong Public Libraries organises a creative writing event cum roving exhibition on the theme of “Chivalrous Heroes: My Favourite Characters in Martial Arts Novels” for primary and secondary school students. Heroes in martial arts novels are generally admired for their physical prowess and strong sense of righteousness. Through this event, we would like to encourage children and young people to learn about martial arts novels and to share with the public through pictures or prose the chivalry and patriotism of the characters, their personalities or plots in the novels that are worth learning from. Let reading nourish their life and foster positive values.
This exhibition is also one of the activities in the Chinese Culture Promotion Series. The LCSD has long been promoting Chinese history and culture through organising an array of programmes and activities to enable the public to learn more about the broad and profound Chinese culture.
