Programme highlights

The Cattle Depot was one of the city’s first clusters of art studios. Built in 1908, it served as a slaughterhouse and quarantine base, and was revitalized into a local art village in 2001, to accommodate local artists relocated from the Oil Street art colony in North Point. This is also the only pre-war slaughterhouse which still existed in Hong Kong.

This cultural tour will be led by an experienced heritage expert to explain the history and development of the Cattle Depot, to let participants understand the conservation and appreciation of heritage and historic places, and their importance in the life of the community. Apart from learning the cultural and social elements of the depot, participants can also join the Art Jamming session to enjoy Pastel Nagomi Art at the historic architecture under the relaxing atmosphere.
