Asia Art Archive Open Weekend

Storytelling, Workshops, Tours and More

2012 Dec 03

Asia Art Archive (AAA)  is hosting the first annual Open Weekend on July 7 – 8, 2012 for kids and parents.  Enjoy tours of AAA headquarters on Hollywood Road, storytelling by local artists, talks, hands-on workshops, live performances and more.

Themed ‘Between the Lines’, the two-day event aims to inspire new and non-traditional readings of material in AAA’s collection and to expand the meaning of ‘reading’ itself.

Why Little Steps Loves It:​

 

 

*FOR KIDS AND YOUTH:

The Art of Storytelling:  Kids and their parents are invited to join artists who will share creative ways to engage children through storytelling.  Click here for the schedule and to register.

Young Audience Evening:  Experience the library activated at night with surprises of sound and light! Dinner is included. (Ages 15 - 25)

 

*WORKSHOPS:

Pick a Leaf:  Create your own bag by selecting a page from a book in AAA’s collection, photocopying it, making comments on it, and printing it on a bag as a souvenir with the help of PageNEXT’s core team.

 

Behind the ‘Seen’:   Learn about the research and archiving process at AAA, using as an example AAA’s recent project on Oil Street artist village.

 

*EXHIBITIONS AND OTHER ACTITIVIES:
