A charity that provides access to art experiences and opportunities for young people, this year the YAF aims to integrate art into the community and bring together artists, local residents and the general public. The YAF is inviting a group of artists to create artworks and allow the public to participate in the creative process in ten different secret spaces around Hong Kong, for free. The public will be able to visit and revisit the various secret spaces during the month of June and see how the spaces change over the month. Hidden spots range from all corners of Hong Kong, from Mong Kok to Lamma Island.

Contributing artists include Aaro Murphy, Canaan Kwok, Candice Keung, Carl Cheng, Wong Wing Fung, Cedric Maridet, Matt Bailey, Kiwi Liu and Pauline Chan.

Download the guidebook containing pictures, language details, clues and directions to the 10 secret spaces from www.hkyaf.com and visit the Facebook page for more information.

Guided tours with workshops at selected sites are also available for the public; make a reservation by sending your name, mobile number, tour reference and number of people to kerryL@hkyaf.com 7 days before the tour.
