HONG KONG Chinese YMCA of Hong Kong: THE FARM Every Sunday, the Chinese YMCA of Hong Kong, in association with the Eastern District Office and the MILK magazine jointly organize the event called THE FARM. At the heart of Causeway Bay, the ordinary Victoria Park in Hong Kong will transform into a fun Cultural Square for young adults to express their talents and creativity. The FARM mainly consists of two parts, the Flea Market and the Youth Cultural Square. The FARM Flea Market is one of the very first and largest flea markets in Hong Kong. Bustling, busy and full of life, the market is great for treasure hunting where you can find an amazing selection of bargain from CDs to street wear. The young entrepreneurs participating in the Flea Market are given the space to showcase their skills through the items they sell which in turn help ease the burden of unemployment in HK. Similar to the Porte de Vanses in Paris, the Portobello Road in London and the Harajuku Yoyogi Park in Japan; the FARM offers a unique experience of local Asian culture and an array of great buys. Aside from the Flea Market, the Youth Cultural Square at the FARM arranges a variety of events that helps promote local culture and allows the energised youngsters to show their strength and power. The FARM had organized the largest X-GAME show/competition in Hong Kong, which had attracted plenty of good X-GAME players from cities all over the world to participate. Furthermore, cultural offerings with a more Asian flavour can be found at the exhibitions and seminars held on a regular basis, such as the Rock and Roll band shows played by local artist. The FARM not only brought together these brilliant young adults but also allowed them a place to express themselves and their talents. With loads of new ideas and excitement, the phenomenon of the FARM has become one of the greatest events for the youngsters. Contact Person: Mr. Karl Lau |
