Date: 28 July 2022 (Thursday) Time: 4pm – 6pm Venue: Hong Kong Museum of Art Registration: required, free Feedbacks "I gained a great experience today." "I really enjoy the exhibition tours organized by HKUFAAA. You can learn about the curatorial ideas and interesting stories about the making of the exhibitions from curators!" "My visits to the two exhibitions were thoroughly enjoyable! They have greatly enriched my knowledge of the wide variety of export products ascribed under the rubric China Trade and the broad spectrum of visual expressions of the five colours commonly found in Chinese culture." "I did enjoy the visit a lot! Thank you so much for organizing this event!"
Career Talk: Where do we come from? What are we? Where are we going?
Date: 16 July, 2022 (Saturday) Time: 10:30am-11:30am (HK time) Venue: Online (zoom) Medium: Cantonese Registration: required, free Aiming to inspire and encourage students to find their own unique career path, this online event was actually a rather fun sharing among current and past students. The host, Nicole, had invited a group of five guest speakers, all being alumni (and alumni-to-be), who went through an art history training, similar to what our current students is under, and now contributing to different parts of the local art industry. Their roles vary from curating, underwriting, sales management, researching, and painting. They generously shared their individual stories. Time went by so quickly, and there were so much to talk about, that all our speakers could only hope this annual event may become a face-to-face gathering next year! Feedback "Thank you for organising this event, a very meaningful morning!" "Thanks for the sharing and all the advice!" "I think it might be better if the QnA session could be longer, but overall it's great. I learnt a lot about the industry through the talk :)"
