Our Story HK

Everyone is capable of telling their own story through art.

Art can be many things: a meeting-place, a meditation, and even a type of medicine.

The ‘Our Story’ project runs free community art workshops inspired by emerging ‘Arts-on-Prescription’ healthcare models — because a shocking 61% of adults in Hong Kong suffer from poor mental wellbeing (1).

We work directly with vulnerable and underprivileged groups in Hong Kong, in partnership with local charities and NGOs, to boost mental health and combat social isolation through art.

I do sewing but this is my first time with this kind of art, expressing myself, so doing this I feel proud of myself
