H.A.N.D.S and Shek Lei Shopping Center｜Winter Presentation: "Xunwei Minfang ft. Painting Marks" Food Art Exhibition Savor the feelings of Hong Kong. Revisiting estate culture

Description

Minfang has always been committed to promoting the integration of cultural and creative industries into the community to showcase Hong Kong's unique vitality and human touch. As the festive season approaches, H.A.N.D.S and Shek Lei Shopping Mall, owned by Minfang, have specially invited the popular local illustrator "Hua Mark" to jointly create an art exhibition with the theme of food, integrating Hong Kong's traditional and unique food culture into artistic creation to create a full-scale art exhibition. A community space with regional characteristics.

Integrating art into the community and continuing the feelings of Hong Kong

Adhering to the concept of "activating innovation and inheriting culture", Minfang actively provides a creative and exhibition platform for Hong Kong artists. This time, we invited "Hua Mark", which is famous for its delicate brushstrokes to depict Hong Kong's urban customs, to launch an art creation project that lasted nearly three months. Through art installations, limited edition products and print collection activities, art enters the community and brings a refreshing cultural experience to residents.

Create ten distinctive scenes to show the charm of authentic food

The two major shopping malls have specially designed ten themed scenes, each of which incorporates the unique artistic elements of "Picture Mark", turning Hong Kong's special delicacies into visual art. From nostalgic teahouses to street snacks, it fully presents the unique charm of Hong Kong’s food culture and brings customers a brand new check-in experience.

Thousands of exciting activities add joy to the Christmas season

During the event, the "Collecting Seals to Seek Taste and Appreciating Folk Foods" activity was launched. Customers can receive special postcards for free, collect food stamps and follow the mall's social platforms to receive exquisite gifts. In addition, if you spend a designated amount, you can redeem exclusive "Picture Mark" products. H.A.N.D.S in Aiding Mall will also hold a "Christmas Fun and Talent Show" event during the Christmas period, bringing a series of holiday performances full of love and joy.

Looking to the future and promoting community cultural integration

This cross-border cooperation in art and food not only brings visual and taste enjoyment to the neighborhood, but also encourages the public to explore the rich and diverse dining options in the district and supports the development of local businesses. The community will continue to work hard to create a more diverse community space with Hong Kong characteristics for residents, integrating art, culture and creativity into daily life.

Minfang invites the public to explore this Hong Kong-style art event with their relatives and friends, experience the unique charm of Hong Kong’s food culture, and spend a warm and happy festive time together.
