Our work is only possible with the great support of our community, trustees, advisors, patrons, funding partners, and the designers, mentees and grantees who work tirelessly to produce new knowledge for the energetic and vibrant city of Hong Kong and our region. We would like to acknowledge the generous individuals, organisations and partners who have contributed to the growth of the Design Trust initiative since its conception.
ACKNOWLEDGING OUR COMMUNITY
Design Trust’s annual Gala raises critical funding for its granting and fellowhship programmes, public outreach events and key essential operational costs to advocate for the value of design. These galas are supported by a dedicated and generous network of donors, patrons, supporters and sponsors. Each year, established designers and collectives from Hong Kong and around the world act as Creative Director(s) of the event, and the gala is a platform for Design Trust Grantees to work under their mentorship to criticaly produce the visual identity and installations for the evening.
