Workshop: "From School to Stage" – A Social Enterprise Project with CEDAR-Workshop and Les Beatitudes

The HKU Museum Society is pleased to present a meaningful workshop “From School to Stage” to create your own unique wooden lamp that is being used on stage.  The aim of the workshop is to provide a place to connect with different groups to positively address social issues and the environment, and to support women and groups in need through art & craft. 

Handcrafted wooden lamps and decorative material will be prepared by CEDAR-Workshop, a social enterprise owned by Ebenezer School & Home for the Visually Impaired and operated by their own alumni.  Participants will design the collage for the lamp with recycled necktie and scarves material and will be supported by sewing mothers trained by Les Beatitudes. The workshop will also explain the project of creating 108 lamps specially designed for the famous Cantonese Opera The Floral Princess for their 65th-anniversary performance at Xiqu Center in June 2023.

This project is a collaboration between Les Beatitudes Foundation (a non-profit organization) and CEDAR-Workshop. A portion of the cost of the workshop will be donated to CEDAR-Workshop and Les Beatitudes.
