Special Projects are set to bring along large- scale installations and art performances that pay homage to Hong Kong, inviting artists to showcase their love and passion for this much-loved city. With education as one of its core values, Affordable Art Fair also emphasizes the importance of Art Education, bringing workshops and tours to foster and inspire young people to fall in love with art.
