"ICH Craftsman Spirit" Cultural and Natural Heritage Day

 

A series of fascinating programmes will be coming soon on the "ICH Craftsman Spirit" Cultural and Natural Heritage Day. The ICH masters from the Mainland and Hong Kong will showcase their ingenious craftmanship. Visitors will be able to experience the ICH craftsman's spirit and gain a deeper understanding of traditional craftmanship as a living heritage.

 

The programme is organised to complement the "Cultural and Natural Heritage Day" being held on the second Saturday of June every year, to raise the public awareness of the safeguarding of ICH. It is also one of the activities in the Chinese Culture Promotion Series. The LCSD has long been promoting Chinese history and culture through organising an array of programmes and activities to enable the public to learn more about the broad and profound Chinese culture.
