Row a charity boat!
We are collaborating with CCB (Asia) for the 5th time this year in the annual Hong Kong Dragon Boat Carnival. We will set up a dragon boat cultural art exhibition and display distinctive dragon-boat and paddle masterpieces created by ADAHK artists.
On top of it, there is a Row for Charity area for the public to try and enjoy the fun of rowing on land. CCB (Asia) will then donate HK$2,000 to ADAHK for each 1km cumulative rowing distance. Fund raised will be used for the development of artists with disabilities as well as for the open platforms to showcase our artists’ talent. It only takes you a few minutes to row while you can enjoy the fun-packed carnival. Come and join us for a worthwhile cause! Date: 22-24 June 2018 Venue: Central Harbourfront Activities Space Time: 22 June (Friday) 1 pm to 8 pm 23 June (Saturday) 10 am to 8 pm 24 June (Sunday) 10 am to 8 pm For more information, please visit: http://www.discoverhongkong.com/eng/see-do/events-festivals/highlight-events/dragon-boat-carnival.jsp |
