Glimpses of the "old" through the eyes of the "young"
Thirty-nine winning entries of a students' drawing competition on Hong Kong's historical monuments are now on display at an exhibition at the Antiquities and Monuments Office (AMO) of the Broadcasting, Culture and Sport Branch until August 19.
The competition, which was organised as part of the School Heritage Festival organised by the AMO and the Education Department in March this year, attracted more than 830 entries from primary and secondary students.
The drawings covered Chinese and Western historical buildings and were portrayed in different drawing material such as acrylic, water colour, Chinese ink, poster colour and crayon.
The winning entries fully demonstrate the participants' appreciation and concern of the local cultural heritage. Some are also accompanied by a brief introduction by the artists to give a better understanding of the source of inspiration.
The exhibition is open to the public at the gallery of AMO at 136 Nathan Road, Kowloon, between 9.30 am and 5 pm from Mondays to Saturdays, except for Tuesdays. The opening hours on Sundays and public holidays are between 1 pm and
5 pm.
