Public Engagement
The fun of playtime is the most precious and beautiful part of memories for grown-ups. If you have photographs about childhood pastimes taken in the 1950s to 1980s and plastic or metal toys popular in those years, please share with us so that local collective memories can be passed on. For details of the programmes, please click “Childlike Innocence on Camera” and “Share the Joy”.
