DNA Store
Messy Desk
Cultural Center Ground Hall
May 19, 2023
One weekend after exploring the Museum of Art, I went in search of the Science Museum which I had assumed was also located in the same area. However, I ended up on the ground floor of the Cultural Center rather than the Science Museum.
From the name itself, it is where different cultural shows are held and other events. The events and shows were posted on the board and there were a lot of choices to watch. However, since I have no plan of watching any shows, I opted to have a walk around and a shop at the corner caught my attention because of its name - the DNA Store.
If I'm not mistaken, there are only a few DNA Stores in Hong Kong, two or three probably. The shop located on the ground floor of the Cultural Center is selling items related to cultural art, publication, museum souvenirs, home decor, as well as items used in daily living. Most of the items have, of course, Chinese designs.
There are accessories, stationery, finger art, legos, paintings, gift items, and others perfect as room decor.
My favorite items were the Pinocchio-inspired wooden sculptures with different figures. They are perfect as gift items and home decor as well alongside the Museum and HK souvenirs.
Before heading back home, I went back to HKMOA's ground floor and checked the Messy Desk. The desk was indeed messy, with scattered papers and coloring materials. Kids were allowed to choose whatever pattern they want and color them. Even adults were participating as well. This is just for free so everyone can take a sit and join the Messy Desk.
After coloring, participants can have the VR experience of their drawings by following the given instructions on the side of the drawing card. And do you know that the founder of this is just a very young artist? She's Jane Lee (not the one in the photo though) who won several awards both locally and internationally. You can click the link if you are curious about her. Her artworks are cute and colorful that kids truly love.
That concludes my #MarketFriday. Greetings to its host
