About “ADC Artspace”
“ADC Artspace” is located on 12/F, Genesis, 33-35 Wong Chuk Hang Road, Aberdeen. It is at close proximity to the Wong Chuk Hang Station of the MTR South Island Line, which is scheduled for completion in late 2016. The total floor area of “ADC Artspace” is about 10,254 ft2 and it is partitioned into 17 individual studios ranging from around 300 to 1,400 ft2. It aims to provide studios at concessionary rent to local visual/media artists, especially to emerging ones.
ADC launched the “ADC Artspace” leasing programme in 2014. The provision of the “ADC Artspace” is scheduled for six years, with each tenancy term lasting for 2 years. The first term is from 1 November 2014 to 31 October 2016 and all 17 studios are currently leased out.
The project is made possible by the generous sponsorship of Hip Shing Hong (Holdings) Company Ltd., which has leased the space with below-market rate to the ADC, and the subsidy provided by Home Affairs Bureau.
