Mr Philip TSAI asked whether there would be any arrangement for students and children to visit the Bamboo Theatre. Mr Louis YU replied that four previews were arranged for the local community and schools before the Bamboo Theatre was opened, so that students could see performers demonstration before their Chinese New Year holidays. 22. Regarding the Freespace Fest, Mr Chris IP remarked that he had talked with some artists and young people. They appreciated the opportunities and requested for more. Mr IP suggested providing free space for artists before the commencement of the development of the Park and other facilities. The Chairman noted the bazaar of stores at the Bamboo Theatre, and the effort made to identify young designers with unique skills. She reminded that Hong Kong was in need of such space, therefore we should make full use of this wonderful and conveniently-located site to provide space for use by artists/ designers/ performers at inexpensive rental. This would build up goodwill for as well. West Kowloon Cultural District April 2013 Page 6
