Hong Kong Puppet and Shadow Art Center

Established in 2001 for promotion and development of traditional puppetry, Hong Kong Puppet and Shadow Art Center’s distinctive artistic style is built on traditional foundation and innovative execution. The Center specializes in four traditional types of puppets and shadow art with emphasis on manipulation of puppets and shadows, as well as nuanced performance.

In 2003, the Center received a Special Award in the Golden Lion Competition in China. The Center’s artistic team often takes part in films, television productions, and commercials, while being actively involved in the promotion of traditional puppetry at universities, secondary and primary schools, and in the organization of puppetry and shadow art teams and interest groups. The Center’s artists frequently perform in entertainment venues, schools, shopping malls, and theme parks and are frequently invited to perform in different puppetry and shadow art festivals around the world.
