About VA!

The Hong Kong Visual Arts Centre (VA!) administered by the Art Promotion Office is an open and multi-directional art space that focuses on art education, promotion and research. VA! aims to empower members of the public in art through the transfer of knowledge, to inspire art lovers and emerging artists through the sharing of experience and to strengthen their technique through the provision of professional facilities and art resources.

A place to nurture new blood in art, VA! acts as a facilitator of artistic creativity in Hong Kong and its neighbouring cities, an incubator that brings innovative insights and exciting stimulus to local art communities through a wide range of activities, including international art and cultural exchanges, exhibitions, workshops, demonstrations, lectures and artist-in-residence programmes.

VA! is home to nine studios that are fully equipped for creative work in sculpture, printmaking and ceramics, plus a lecture theatre, an exhibition hall and two multi-purpose rooms. All of these facilities are available for hire by artists and arts groups looking for a venue to pursue their creativity or organise functions and activities.
