Avant-garde Invisible Graffiti at Stanley Plaza Market to Support Next Generation of Local Artists

The Link’s Stanley Plaza will kick off this summer with an aqua- fantasy themed experience during the Dragon Boat Festival. For the first time in Hong Kong, the wildly popular water-based graffiti from the USA will delight Plaza visitors. Jointly presented by Stanley Plaza and local graffiti guru, Uncle Tsang, five creative yet invisible artworks will be hidden around the Plaza. To participate, visitors need only arm themselves with water guns and arrive at the venue, where they can explore the Plaza to discover the hidden artworks by splashing water. During specified times, the aqua-powered “marshall” will launch a water “splash-in” for adults and children for the best of summer fun.

During the festival weekend, The Link and the Hong Kong Markets Organisation will jointly hold the Stanley Plaza Seaside Market. At this open-air market, a range of local young vendors and Stanley Plaza tenants will showcase special cuisines and creative crafts; together with live music, handicraft workshops and more.

With nearly 50 market stalls, visitors of all ages will enjoy this special seaside shopping experience. Vendors include:
