The Hong Kong Museum of History (HKMH) will launch three new exhibitions of the "Multifaceted Hong Kong Exhibition Series" from tomorrow (November 27). The exhibition series offers an in-depth exploration of topics such as local community development, local ethnic groups and connections between Hong Kong and overseas Chinese, aiming to provide a comprehensive introduction to the unique urban development context of Hong Kong and the factors that have contributed to the city's success.
The "Multifaceted Hong Kong Exhibition Series" is the first phase of the revamped permanent exhibition of the HKMH. The three new exhibitions, namely the "Yau Tsim Mong - The Urban Transition and Community Bonds", the "Estórias Lusas - Stories of the Hong Kong Portuguese" and the "Sojourning in Gold Mountain - Hong Kong and the Lives of Overseas Chinese in California" exhibitions will be held at the exhibition galleries on the 2/F and M/F of the HKMH respectively. Admission is free.
Addressing the opening ceremony of the exhibition today (November 26), the Secretary for Culture, Sports and Tourism, Mr Kevin Yeung, said these three exhibitions, each with different themes, share a common entry point: Hong Kong is the place, where East meets West with a racial diversity and inclusion, and connection to the world.
Other officiating guests included the Consul-General of Portugal in Macau and Hong Kong, Mr Alexandre Leitão; the Chairman of the Museum Advisory Committee, Professor Douglas So; the Acting Director of Leisure and Cultural Services, Miss Eve Tam; and the Museum Director of the HKMH, Mr Terence Cheung.
