Hong Kong Visual Arts Centre
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Hong Kong Visual Arts Centre (traditional Chinese: 香港視覺藝術中心) is located in Hong Kong Park, at Kennedy Road in Central, Hong Kong Island, Hong Kong.According to the Plaque in the Arts Centre, it was opened by Leung Ding-Bon, the then chairman of the Urban Council in 1992.
The main aim of the centre is to support the local art creation. The centre was restructured from an early 20th century building (Cassels Block, former barracks for married British officers, of Victoria Barracks), in order to provide an area and facilities for local artists in order to enhance their creativity. A lot of modern artifacts and sculptures can be enjoyed in this centre.
The historic building is graded as Grade II historic building.[1]
