Presented by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department
Organised by the Art Promotion Office
In Partnership with the Architectural Services Department
Part of the Art Promotion Office's ongoing mission since it was first established has been to organise public art schemes in which selected artists and art groups are commissioned to create and install public artworks at venues managed by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department. Offering the public the opportunity to encounter and appreciate art while using cultural and recreational facilities, these schemes not only beautify our living environment, but also close the distance that we all too frequently experience from art.
The Town Park and Indoor Velodrome-cum-Sports Centre under construction in Area 45 of Tseung Kwan O is a large leisure, recreational and sports facility that will feature a landscaped artificial lake and grand lawn, a multi-purpose amphitheatre, an outdoor climbing wall, a skateboard park and, as its focal point, an international competition-standard indoor velodrome. The APO will invite artists and art groups to submit proposals for public artworks that will be installed to beautify the well-planned town park, the indoor velodrome and the sports centre and to highlight sports culture at the facility.
