The Legislative Council ("LegCo") Souvenir Shop launched today (31 January) a series of four souvenir items in collaboration with the social enterprise ADAM.  By jointly developing souvenirs, The Legislative Council Commission acts to foster social inclusion through supporting social enterprise.

The series of souvenir items, including a silk tie, a silk scarf, a document bag and a backpack, is adapted from the painting "Hong Kong Spirit 3" by Ms LIU Tung-mui, an ADAM's resident artist with disability.  Vibrant and bright colours are used in the painting to represent the energetic spirit of modern Hong Kong, making each souvenir item both functional and aesthetically pleasing.

The souvenir items are now exclusively for sale at the LegCo Souvenir Shop while stocks last.

ADAM is the social enterprise set up by the Arts with the Disabled Association Hong Kong, with an aim to provide artists with disabilities with the opportunities to apply their artistic talents to contribute to society.

Ms LIU Tung-mui was motor impaired from birth.  She has overcome difficulties to start painting since 1992 and become an award-winning artist.

The LegCo Souvenir Shop, located at the Main Lobby of the LegCo Complex (1 Legislative Council Road, Central), opens daily from 10 am to 6 pm.  For more information, please visit the webpage of LegCo Souvenir Shop (https://app.legco.gov.hk/souvenirshop/english/index.aspx).
