To celebrate the 35th anniversary of the Arts with the Disabled Association Hong Kong, we are launching the ‘Inclusive Arts at Your Fingertips’ DIY series for the first time, allowing you to immerse yourself in the fun of DIY at home even if you have zero experience! The series includes ‘Make Your Own Ukulele’ and ‘Paint Your Own Canvas Bag’. We have also invited three artists with disabilities design painting patterns for different DIY kits. Each set includes all the necessary tools and materials, a teaching manual and video so that crafters or those who want to relax can easily tackle the arty project at home. Our kits are tremendous for kids to get crafty and creative as well as train them to concentrate and be patient.
