探索利園區 - 百年營造的故事導賞團

熱鬧的銅鑼灣裡有一群天台農夫?
「瑞士雞翼」起源自一次口誤?
利舞臺是哪幾個明星的演藝事業起點?

跟我們漫步一次銅鑼灣,重新認識這片土地的人文故事。

從漁村到鬧市,從空間到地方,從個人到社區,利園區走過百年地方營造。

希慎自1920年代起塑造銅鑼灣的城市面貌,讓人們在這充滿活力的空間中休閒享樂,孕育出不同的情感。他和她在這個社區交織往來,建立屬於自己的銅鑼灣。

從希慎廣場的天台農圃到壁畫藝術家的創作靈感,再到利舞臺的文化遺產,每一處都見證了利園區的百年變遷。

是次導賞團以地方營造為主題,探索銅鑼灣充滿活力的社區心臟地帶,感受利園區的地方營造魅力。導覽最後一站更會參觀利園區精彩的百年歷史展覽,展出珍貴的文物、歷史影像圖片和多媒體資料,讓你更全面了解這個標誌性地區的豐富歷史、文化和社區精神。讓我們地區營造角 度重新認識銅鑼灣。

導賞團由活現香港舉辦;利希慎基金贊助及全力支持。
