Two exhibitions are now being held at the City Museum and

Art Gallery.

One of these is the "Sketches of Hong Kong". It consists

of 28 drawings by Charles D. Hoeppner, an American artist who lived in

Hong Kong four years ago.

The drawings vividly portray Hong Kong, its buildings, people,

streets, beaches, and the countryside.

The exhibition will remain on view till July 5.

The other exhibition is the "Art Now Hong Kong" which has

recently returned to Hong Kong after a tour of four cities in the United

Kingdom.

It consists of 64 paintings, prints, and sculpture selected from

the City Museum's permanent collection.

The exhibition which was originally scheduled to close on

June 18, is now extended until July 2.

The City Museum's film programme of the month features a 30-minute

colour film entitled "Why Man Creates", showing man's progress from the

primitive state to high sophistication through art. The director of the

film is Saul Bass, a well-known American designer.

Two shows will be held in the Lecture Room North on Tuesday,

June 20,at 3 p.m. and Friday, June 30, at 6 p.m.

Free tickets will be available at the Museum's reception counter

one hour before each show.
