About apo
The Art Promotion Office (APO) aims to raise the public's interest in art creation and appreciation, and let everyone experience the fun of art. APO focuses on providing visual art activities and services of high quality and diversity. In different dimensions, we often work as strategic partners with various art practitioners and the organisations, groups or parties who are dedicated to promote art. To cope with the needs of the society and the people, we introduce different scopes of visual art forms to the public, so as to connect art with people and the community and to embrace art in our daily life.
On the other hand, through vA! and Oi!, the two art spaces managed by APO, we provide professional facilities for art creation and a platform for artists to display their creativity and exchange ideas, to let art embark and be realised here.
