Introduction
Hong Kong Arts Development Council (HKADC)’s Arts Criticism Group has launched the "Arts Criticism Recognition Programme 2024 - Tertiary Students" for the first time this year. This initiative aims to encourage tertiary students to produce arts critiques in writing or video form, to recognize and reward young individuals with potential on arts criticism. The programme covers five art forms: visual arts, literature, film, music, and theatre (including Drama, Dance and Xiqu). A total of 148 submissions were received during the launch period from 18 March to 29 August, 2024. Out of which, 134 works were eligible and qualified.
