Well, the year of the Rabbit is certainly living up to its rep, off to a flying start.. !
Kindly excuse my tardy blog behaviour, I have had my head down busting my ass to help organise an incredible event with the Clean Air Network (CAN), Hk's leading clean air NGO, to educate our residents about Hk's no 1 health crisis: Air Pollution.
I have learnt some horrifying and alarming facts about the air that we have no choice to breathe in this land that is home to us all. The CAN team are incredibly motivating and enthusiastic about tackling this cause, and I think it is an inspired idea to bring awareness of this issue to the public through some of HKs leading creative minds.
We have some incredible artists from HK, China and overseas contributing and you can check out all of the details here:
