Dear Young Members,

Would you like to have a taste of organizing community outreach events related to public open space? If you haven't got the chance to join us in community engagement projects before, grab this chance now!

YPG is participating in the ‘spaceplusfestival’ (Yau Tsim Mong District) 「非常社區節(油尖旺區)」organized by Very Hong Kong in August 2023 as one of the community partners. Following Very Hong Kong’s placemaking journey in Yuen Long District last winter, they are teaming up with more NGOs, local performers and kai-fongs to co-curate a wide array of exciting programmes for all. Fun events including music shows, exhibitions, workshops, guided tours and more will be held during the festival at Dundas!

Centered on Dundas Street Sitting-Out Area, YPG will hold an interactive booth that invites participants to vote on the activities they would love to see at the site and design their ideal sitting-out areas that highlight the characteristics of Yau Tsim Mong District through drawings and/or textual descriptions. We are now recruiting helpers to make this meaningful event happen! This would be a great taster for those who would like to organize placemaking events with YPG in the coming year!

Details of the event:
Date: 20 Aug 2023 (Sun)
Time: 2-6pm (2 time slots available)
Venue: Dundas Street Sitting-Out Area

All young planners under the age of 35 are welcome!
