Hong Kong Human Rights Arts Prize - Viewing & Auction Night

Established in 2013 by Justice Centre Hong Kong, the Hong Kong Human Rights Arts Prize (HKHRAP) has played a pivotal role in discovering and encouraging Hong Kong artists to explore the state of human rights and in turn, has inspired the civic imagination. This year, artists were encouraged to explore the theme ‘Shared Future’ through topics including ‘life for refugees in Hong Kong’ or ‘visions of an inclusive society’.

Listed as one of the top 10 Hong Kong art events to visit by Tatler Hong Kong, this year's edition promises to be better than ever!

On June 24th, we will be conducting a live auction of the award-winning pieces, auctioned by Georgie Hilton of Christie's. An online auction of remaining shortlisted works will also take place.

33 amazing shortlisted artworks from artists hailing from a variety of backgrounds and communities will be on display. All proceeds go directly to support future Arts Prize events and enable Justice Centre to continue helping refugees, asylum seekers and other forced migrants in Hong Kong.

Please note that unfortunately due to COVID-19 related restrictions we are not permitted to serve food or drink at the event.

Co-hosted by the European Union Office of Hong Kong and Macao, supported by the Goethe-Institut Hong Kong.
