Event Overview
A community art project inviting residents to become 'chefs' and create unique fabric dishes representing the Three Lamps district. Led by renowned Taiwanese community artist Chou Ling-Chih, this workshop uses patchwork art to explore the relationship between art and daily life. The Cultural Affairs Bureau initiated this project to encourage art to enter the community and provide more opportunities for public participation in artistic creation.
