Children’s art manifests their creative thoughts, genuine emotions and innovative ideas, which we often bring to the public through art exhibitions in Hong Kong and overseas. We are grateful for the generous support of many corporations, developers, shopping malls, galleries, museums and even public art organizers.

An inclusive design research project of country parks in Hong Kong co-led by The Public Design Lab of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University School of Design, CreativeKids.
This research project captured the design processes and products as children and teenagers made visual research and utilized the three I’s Design Thinking Framework for Children (Inquire > Ideate > Improvise).
Youngsters develop qualities of a researcher, designer and change-maker through sharpening their senses toward the wonders of nature and adopting inclusive public design’s way of thinking and practice in a real-life setting (in Shing Mun Country Park).
Adults gain understanding of how youngsters perceive possibilities and problems in their environment and ways to solve them.

Showcase & Sharing at HKDI Aug 26, 2018
As part of the Creative Stories theme in 2017, we have designed a series of projects that explore interesting stories behind the unique communities in which we live, under the name Hong Kong Hunt 香港行 2017. Using art, design, architecture, storytelling and design thinking as creative tools of inquiry and problem-solving, children researched and expressed their perception of the past, present and possible future of Hong Kong.
Hong Kong Hunt 香港行 2017 is a further development of an initiative started by CreativeKids in 2002 to help children find their cultural roots and to develop a sense of belonging in this ever-changing city. The Hong Kong Hunt 香港行 2002 was invited to exhibit in Guangdong Museum of Art.
