Buskers in Hong Kong also face different difficulties, including a lack of performance venues, lack of funding and equipment, and frequent evictions for busking. Having said that, art in Hong Kong is more accessible and dynamic than ever. Art can now take place at more diverse venues or through innovative media. We wish to be part of that to bring some positive changes and will continue to support the HKBA.
