The mission of the Hong Kong Arts Centre is to nurture creativity, arts and cultural engagement through its two-pronged approach in promoting contemporary performing arts, visual arts as well as film and video arts and in providing lifelong and life-wide arts education.

Home to artists’ bold and creative explorations, the Arts Centre featured numerous presentations in various art forms, including film and Video programmes, visual arts programmes and performing arts programmes.  The Arts Centre also presents conference, art festivals and public art projects.

The Art School has been renamed as Hong Kong Art School since February 1, 2006.  The new school name marks the School’s standing as a unique visual art school in Hong Kong.  Established since 2000, the School has been offering integrated programmes ranging from short courses to certificate, diploma, higher diploma, associate degree, first degree, and post-graduate degree, covering six academic areas, namely, Fine Art, Chinese Art, Applied Art, Media Art, Arts Education, and Humanities.  As of 2003, the School has become a recognized Sub-degree Award Granting Institution.
