Last week we featured an ongoing community busking programme that the Hong Kong Philharmonic is organising to mark its Golden Jubilee in 2024.
Later on today’s show, I’ll be talking to their Chief Executive to find out more about the orchestra’s 50th birthday celebration. Also taking art to the street – in fact he’s keen to doodle anywhere he can – is British artist Sam Cox, widely known as Mr Doodle. He was in Hong Kong earlier, transfiguring one area in the MTR’s Hong Kong Station close to where I'm standing, in a rare live art performance.

Cross the threshold into the 10 Chancery Lane Gallery and you’ll find yourself encountering the “Otherworlds”, inhabited by angels, underwater creatures, and mysterious plants, by artist fuchsia. The climate crisis is a major theme in her watercolour and oil paintings. Her angels, she says, represent love, vulnerability, and innocence, core elements in human beings that we sometimes lose as we become adults.

With 2024 just around the corner, there is also a little surprise from our presenter, Ben Pelletier to help us get ready to ring in the new year.
