活在西環

 
 
多姿多彩的香港地道文化,充滿無盡的生命力和吸引力,其獨特之處,使人難忘。由本地3間民間機構X 1間專上學院X 1位專業規劃師,聯合主辦以本地街道和社區文化為題的專業展覽,旨在讓公眾體現豐富多樣的本土文化歷史。我們也從一幢舊建築物開始,作展覽場地,舉辦嶄新互動的文化展覽。這幢建築物前身為「贊育醫院」員工宿舍,獲政府評定為三級歷史建築物,自1922年建造,贊育醫院有著豐富悠久的歷史背景,見證著當時的社會、經濟及民生的發展。

從施倍德博士的街道寫生,可看到充滿動感活力的地道文化。香港社區組織協會提供豐富精采的舊區照片及家居舊物的裝置藝術,讓我們走入社區、唐樓、老店及弱勢社群,深入了解舊區草根生活和文化多元性。充滿創造力的香港城市大學專上學院康樂及旅遊管理課程學生為古蹟、文化、習俗提出多個構思,使香港的保育工作得以薪火相傳。而長春社文化古蹟資源中心和龍圃慈善基金致力推動保護古蹟文化的工作,把保育活動融入社區。這次展覽旨在讓觀眾探索本土文化、社區生命力及鄰舍價值觀。

 

 

Hong Kong's Cultural Heritage is unique and irreplaceable. Three non-profit/charity organisations, one academic institution, and one urban planner/architect give a joint exhibition at a heritage centre to take a thematic look at Hong Kong's local culture. By first traveling through the streets of Hong Kong in Peter Cookson Smith's drawings, one gets a sense of Hong Kong' dynamic cultural landscape.

Similarly, SoCO's photographic exhibit and art installation on ten traditional shops in Sham Shui Po remind us of a fast disappearing community culture that should be treasured, as well as those marginalised people living in the community who should be respected and cared for.

Finally, a dozen senior student projects from the Associate of Social Science in Leisure and Tourism Management Programme, Community College of City University, show us creative ways in which Hong Kong's customs and traditions, and built or natural heritage can be preserved and conserved to benefit the city.

The "Hong Kong's Cultural Heritage" exhibition is spearheaded by CACHe, The Conservancy Association Centre for Heritage, and The Dragon Garden Charitable Trust. Both organizations promote heritage and cultural conservation through community education and participation.

Come experience Hong Kong's Cultural Heritage, which forms an integral and necessary part of our local identity.

- 施倍德博士的街道文化寫生展覽

地道及傳統文化保存及延展

是次展覽的建築物前身為贊育醫院,是一所產科醫院,主要為居民提供產科及初生嬰兒服務。在1922年至1955年期間,在這裡出生的嬰兒無數。社協在這幢舊建築內展示的文化展覽,意義在於我們盼望香港地道及傳統文化猶像這座歷史建築物以往的功能一樣,重新並保存給我們的下一代,不斷繁衍及延展。

Inheritance and extension of local and traditional culture

Tsan Yun Hosptial is a maternity hospital, mainly to provide maternity and post-natal services. Between 1922 and 1955, countless number of babies were born in this hospital. By having an exhibition in this hospital, we hope Hong Kong's local culture will be, liked this building, preserved and extended.

活在西環的居民口述歷史

欣賞舊建築,不單是它獨特的建築美學,更重要是它盛載著的歷史和豐富有趣的感人故事。活在西環的居民雖然每天與它擦身而過,但相信他們過往有很多人生難忘和動人的片段都發生在這幢建築物內。我們希望透過這次展覽能尋找這些故事的主角,了解他們過往生活的點滴,以活在西環居民的口述歷史紀錄出發,誘發社區參與。

We hope this exhibition will help you to find those involve in these stories, understand their living. Begin with Living in the Western District's
